Fiskebar Restaurant, Antwerp

One thing I’ve learned, Belgians never stop eating from morning to night. All the establishments are full every night.

We left for a restaurant called ‘Fiskebar”. This is mainly a seafood establishment. One ordered the sole dinner, two ordered the mixed grill – salmon, scampi and turbot with roast potatoes and I had the scampi with mashed potatoes. All dinners came with a small salad with a dressing and the mashed potatoes are done with parsley.  So good you almost want to lick your plate.

We ordered some chocolate mousse, sang Happy Birthday and came home. Tired, sassy and full. Out of all the meals consumed here in Antwerp, this was my favourite….the best meal yet and, if we lived here and I wasn’t married to the best cook, I would eat there 7 days A week.

Tomorrow is a big day for the 3 of us. Our adventure begins tomorrow.

den Artist, Antwerp

Tonight we were out to another fine restaurant called den Artist. It was full, noisy and fun.

Don ordered Moule and Frites (a bucket full of Mussels and fries). Carole ordered some kind of spicy meatballs and vegetable dish and Lucille and I ordered the half roast chicken with applesauce and mini salad.

The 3 ladies shared a carafe of white wine and it was delightful.

Once again we were full but had to order the crème brulee…well we did! Oh, did I tell you they also had that silly French coffee? hahaha  yup they did and I did.

Trendy area that the tourists don’t normally get to. Too bad…they are so super great.
