But especially bread, crispy, is made and cooked on-site; The pastries are divine and the little sweets and creams to bite on the thumb between noon and two are worth the detour. And if you're thirsty, you're also selling fresh drinks. A very good address.

A Belgian company that makes pralines and other chocolate sweets, Léonidas is well established in Europe and around the world. The company was founded in 1913 by Léonidas Kestekides. One million pralines are produced every day in the two Brussels factories. In 2021, the Main Street shopping center saw the opening of a Léonidas boutique combining a chocolate shop, café and tea room.

Historically, this little shop competed for a long time with its rival Gasnier, located closer to Pontlieue's «moon» (that is, the place). However, she continues to sell the best ham in the neighborhood. And the pizzas and laminated on the windows compete with the beautiful charcuterie and the good blocks on your left. To complete your meal at the last minute, some cans are also offered. No big surprise, therefore, coming to buy here: It's traditional charcuterie, with very good products.

Almost an institution in the Pontlieue district. If you can get past an ostentatiously commercial welcome, this plush boutique deserves it. Prepared dishes don't age in the window, and pâtés and andouilles don't dry out on their slices. People come here for the classic, well-crafted recipes (all charcuterie is made from free-range pigs), but you won't find any pâté with trumpets of death or Marsala sausage. The andouille has a real tripe taste, the smokiness of the garlic sausage is perfectly balanced, and the ham makes you want to eat it more often. Mr Gasnier's rillettes have won several medals at the Mamers competition.

One of the flagship products? Feuillants d'or. These are broken crêpes dentelles mixed with an almond and hazelnut praline. Hmm... you could eat a whole box of them! You should also try chocolate with chilli in bars or bite-size pieces, or with caramelized hazelnuts. You can also be tempted by a box of assortments or a magnificent gift box. L'Atelier du Chocolat also offers rochers, shortbread, medals and chocolate plaques. A formidable address for gourmands!

We pass the threshold of this corner shop, with, in mind, the project to organize a rillettes evening, since they are here well known.

You will also be hesitating at all these starters and dishes dishes. It's you who see. Also think of this address for your guests: possibility of cold buffets, with a wine proposal.
