Belgian restaurants specializing in mussels Bruxelles - Brussel

On the plate, Belgium is in the spotlight! It's not so much about great food as about authenticity, and we're really looking forward to tasting one of the last places where the chips are homemade and the mussels are available in 30 different ways. On the walls... everything that makes us Belgian, from the royal family to Manneken-Pis, Jacques Brel, Eddy Merckx and old views of the capital. The dishes are generous in quantity and one forgets very quickly the hubbub which reigns in a room almost full every evening.

With its tired mirrors, murals and weathered woodwork, the Cochaux brewery exudes an atmosphere that is half Art Nouveau, half old-fashioned. The regulars come back and the faithful stay, a guarantee of quality and authenticity. For those with small appetites, the menu offers a choice of omelettes and salads. It's good, it's prepared with fresh products and it's a bit expensive for a classic cuisine. But it's close to a zero-fault menu... To shine in the evening, tell them that Felix Cochaux was an engineer and invented a new type of drag boat.
