Classical shopping mall, with very large paid coveted parking, just at the beginning of the main street and 5 minutes from the historical centre.

Very nice and fancy fish restaurant in the centre of Brussels, well known by locals (as me). Super fresh food, well cooked, very large portions at moderate prices . And a very good wine list as well.
Unfortunately this time the service was below expectations as the waitress served half of my glass wine beside thr glass... and even didn't see it! Later she brought us an additional soft there were asked for sprinkling water! Good that the chief waiter is still at the top.

Nice place, quite small museum but with a good overview of the expansion of the city of Brussels.
The thematic rooms have however only a couple of pieces in exhibition, be it beautiful ones.

Large choice of books in French and Russian.
However, (at least one) staff is quite rude and even reacts (inappropriately) when you are already outside of the shop. No real customer friendliness.
Not sure at all that I'll go back...

The ideal place for breakfast!
