a good belgian stew prepared with trapist beer and fries with mayonnaise is one of my favorite dishes. I also like to eat mussels. and Brussels sprouts with bacon is also at the top of my favorites list
Sole Meunière, sole in a butter-parsley-lemon sauce. Every fisherman knows it all too well: A sole has to swim 3 times: in the sea, in the butter and in the stomach.
all tourist traps. sorry. Fries baked in baskets? that is for MCD. you need to go out of the tourist centers to get real belgian food. This is so in every country
Liège waffles can be found prepacked in any Belgian supermarket. These can be eaten cold or heated. The go-to brand would be Suzy Waffles by Lotus. The original independent Suzy factory was probably the only one in the world with a music studio at the back.
Eating a mitraillette is relatively easy: you first eat away some of the chips until you can eat the bun (or you put some of those fries aside and then eat the bun and fries simultaneously).
What a fun day, waffles, chocolate, chippies, a cold beer and a show. Good to see you’re eating healthy, at least the waffle had fruit on it. It all looked really yummy, the chips could’ve done with a bit of chicken salt and tomato sauce but they looked and sounded fresh and crispy. Stay safe, miss you both, love you.xx mum 🧇
We've also found the simpler the better when it comes to thing like this. Unfortunately we had this realisation in the Netherlands after we already left Belgium 😞
I’m from Brussels. And Fritland is very good. Chez Antoine at Place Jourdan is nice but overrated. Also not worth the travel if you’re a tourist. There’s nothing around Place Jourdan unless you want to visit the European Parliament.
I think you guys are a cute match. I was looking for some inspiration, as I'll be visiting Brussels with my Partner, for a day soon...That sandwich with the fries looks so amazing, can't wait to try it. THUMBS UP!
A quick heads up from a Belgian here: All waffles are dessert. It's fries first, then waffles. How one eats a mitraillette without making a mess has always been an open question. Buying chocolate anywhere in the Brussels city centre is way too expensive. Beginner's guide on buying Belgian beer: go for Trappists or Belgian Family Brewers labels. Stella and Jupiler is watered down water. The K-pop thing is global and not something we all agree with.
I can not believe chacolate and strawberry is the most popular. Most of us just have powdered sugar on our waffles, we're not savages. Half of the fun of a Brussels waffle is the airy crispy texture. That waffle looked rather soggy...
The beer in the bottle is a triple one and a nice one (I use the app untapped to check in all the different beers that i have tasted and rate them as well). I had it myself here in the Netherlands. It's a beer that you also can find here in the supermarket. I also have eating the militairy. It was huge and alone it's difficult to eat all of it. The sauce i didn't like.
for as far as i know as a belgian only turists eat brussels waffels whit all the topings on them and i agree a luikse waffel is better and eaten by all the brussels one is eaten aswell but just whit powder sugar or confituur
Brussels is incredible haha we love that you can have a mitraillette and be full for most of the day! Completely agree about the people too, super nice!
ugh... going to an Irish Pub to taste Belgian beer in a city that is filled to the brim with Belgian beer cafes who could give you pointers and explanations about the beers they're serving... you really have to succeed in that type of logic.
@@JordanandEmily You're in Belgium. Finding Belgian Beer without a hefty price tag is not one bit of an achievement. Unless you're a tourist sticking to tourist traps.
I prefer Brussels waffles but just with powdered sugar. It a great waffle to make at home. It can only be eaten fresh baked or loses its crunchiness. Easy recipe but you do need yeast to have them be light and don’t use sugar. Put powdered sugar on top after baking.
@@JordanandEmilyI think not one tourist. Belgium people can eat them everyday and if you eat Fries you need to ask fries Whit stoofvlees saus and mayonaise
What's your favourite Belgian food!?

@@alainmellaerts8926 I love that! swim three times haha, that's great!

Wow! We did find them in the supermarket - so good! Just not sure what brand we got 😅
The better metraiettes are with mexicano and you first eat a bunch of the fries and then dig in once it is small enough to put in your mouth
ohhhh with Mexicano sounds amazing!!

Very good point haha, we assumed to be local you needed to just have big bites!
@@JordanandEmily Euh... a mitraillette basically forces you to eat it in a specific way. It's very far from being rocket science.
For me belgium it is one of my favorites country for the food in europe❤ after Italy
You might be right!!
cute surroundind around beautiful view of area
The whole place looks so beautiful! Thanks for watching!

So healthy 😂😂 love you miss you
This is the most wholesome thing I've read today! 🤗
the waffle had too many toppings, tourist trap, just powdered sugar and whipped cream

hi!
the best fries are at Place Jourdan. The place u guys went to is more for tourists :)
Oh! Is there a specific shop called place or is it somewhere inside the main place that has the best fries? 😄
I’m from Brussels. And Fritland is very good. Chez Antoine at Place Jourdan is nice but overrated. Also not worth the travel if you’re a tourist. There’s nothing around Place Jourdan unless you want to visit the European Parliament.

😄 you have to try it! It's a lot but it's great! Enjoy Brussels!
Belgium and swiss choc are famous
Hopefully we get the chance to try Swiss one day!

Thanks for letting us know!
Very great video all the sights and sounds what do you think was your favorite food while visiting
Oh gosh that’s tough!! For me (Emily) it was probably the liege waffle, for Jordan the frites 🤤 you really can’t go wrong though it’s all so good! 😊
@@JordanandEmily 🤣 that is what I was thinking too thanks for the reply
Lovely video, glad you had a good time here
Thank you! 😃
Yummy yummy!
So so good!! 🤤🤤🤤
manneke pis the local hero who pissed on the fuse of the bomb to avoid the destruction of the city
Very cool story! we ended up hearing a few different ones about his origin!

probably all the tourists ordering it 🤣
😋😋😋
Delicious!!

Just downloaded the untapped app! 😄 thanks for the tip!
@@JordanandEmily Your welcome. It's a great app! Every local beer you can check in with it.
That looks soooo gooood
It really was! 😄 delicious!
So good 😊
So tasty! 😋
i'm getting hungry already!
😀 haha, we can relate!
for as far as i know as a belgian only turists eat brussels waffels whit all the topings on them and i agree a luikse waffel is better and eaten by all the brussels one is eaten aswell but just whit powder sugar or confituur
Powdered sugar sounds so much better!
Belgian Chips (fries) …. The real deal..
Delicious!!
Brussels it's thé best Coty for food in Europe ! Mitraillette it's best i want come black in brussels ans people very good people ! I Miss brussels
Brussels is incredible haha we love that you can have a mitraillette and be full for most of the day! Completely agree about the people too, super nice!
I will always get mad when I see people get scammed on waffles, they shouldn't be complex and not cost you 9 euros
We struggled to find the REAL traditional ones in the city 😞 it seemed everyone was dressed up a lot!
@@JordanandEmily yeah it is like that in the cities, next time try the countryside or maybe our store bought ones instead
@@IceGuadian We abslutely will! I think a roadtrip is in order!
ugh... going to an Irish Pub to taste Belgian beer in a city that is filled to the brim with Belgian beer cafes who could give you pointers and explanations about the beers they're serving... you really have to succeed in that type of logic.
We did succeed!
Because we had Belgium beer in Belgium without a hefty price tag!
@@JordanandEmily You're in Belgium. Finding Belgian Beer without a hefty price tag is not one bit of an achievement. Unless you're a tourist sticking to tourist traps.
Irish Pub is mostly very expensive, so I find this odd. If you ever come to Antwerp, check out café Gollem.

Mmm powdered sugar! Honestly I think I'd like anything even similar to waffles haha
You can't waist chocolate in a box even after 2 weeks there are still the same
Don't think they would make it through two weeks without us eating them to be fair! 😅
@@JordanandEmilyI think not one tourist. Belgium people can eat them everyday and if you eat Fries you need to ask fries Whit stoofvlees saus and mayonaise
Put some Salad tomato and you Franse hamburger.
Good idea!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

hello !
Hello! 👋👋 how are you?!
Omg, sandwich with fries? Looked weird. Probably taste weird.
Carb overload but so good!!
A war or something 🤡🤡🤡
