LA MAISON DES POIVRES
Read moreA spicy address! Sandrine V. Kabonga is a producer, expert and consultant in peppers and spices. Many of her spices come from the DR Congo (the country of her ancestors), directly from the Misao production chain to her boutique. You'll find a wide selection of spices from other parts of the world: pepper, vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, chillies..., as well as homemade blends: curries, zaatar, spiced coffees and teas. Spice-tasting workshops are also held at Misao. Simba and Tembo beers from RDC are also available.
AU COMPTOIR DES BELGES
Read moreThis small store on the edge of the main road in Marcinelle transpires the belgian spirit. Numerous photos of stars from the Flat Country adorn the walls and there is something for every generation (Remco Evenepoel, Jacky Ickx...). The business opened in 2015 and offers nearly 300 brewery references. Note that the boss has his own beer produced in the Fou du Roi facilities in Thuin. Belgian spirits are also to be discovered as well as cured meats, cheeses, without forgetting the chocolates! Don't miss the tasting days!
WOSTYN MUSTARD MUSEUM
Read moreAfter a visit to the museum (63, Oude Gentweg), you will not be able to leave without a visit to the shop to buy the "Mostaard Wostyn". This mustard is natural: without preservatives, colorants or thickeners, and with a unique taste, unlike many mustards sold in shops. In the shop, you will also find drinks such as a mustard liqueur (if, if!), a beer with mustard seeds or mustard pralines. Uncommon culinary discoveries that will make you a true connoisseur!
