The best Italian pizzerias and restaurants Zaventem

A gentle breeze from Sicily blows across these lands just northwest of Brussels. Here, you can sit back and enjoy Italian dishes, especially pasta: penne alla norma (a Sicilian specialty), tortellini with ricotta and spinach or decadent cappelli with black truffle, tomato and tartufata, as well as tasty pizzas and paninis (for those on a budget). Plump salads and a host of sandwiches complete the menu. You'll get your fill without your wallet screaming.

Towards the airport, we head for the village. Because yes, Zaventem is also a village, and a charming one at that. And for less than the cost of a round-trip ticket on Alitalia, you can enjoy the local atmosphere, with a menu of must-tries and a few gastronomic surprises, such as swordfish, carpaccio trio or pasta al forno, salmon and vegetables. The pizzas are prepared in the traditional way, the pasta is fresh, the suggestion board is constantly renewed and the wines are particularly well chosen. Terrace.
