(1120 Chaussée de Waterloo i Brussels, Belgien)

Blue Elephant Thai restaurant just south of Brussels City was the first of the celebrated group that... may eventually take over the world -- to general applause. This is a chic Thai fantasy, an Eden of exotic flora to take you far from the busy metropolis outside. During the day the stunningly-appointed dining room is naturally lit from the skylight above, while in the evening candles and lamps take over. It is lushly decorated with exotic plants, beautiful orchids, Buddhas, Thai woodwork, comfy bamboo chairs, and smiling Thai-costumed waitstaff. [mermindre]

With poems, pastel watercolors and chic photographs hanging from the walls, the creative décor resem...bles an art house more than a restaurant. The talented Chef and owner, who doubles as an artist, is able to excite guests visually and gastronomically. Located on the cobble stone streets of Place du Grand Sablon, this quaint eatery boasts some of the best French comfort food you can find. Try a Knuckle of lamb with thyme, or roasted duck with onion marmalade. For an appetizer, sink into a marinated herring filet. With a fixed price menu, you will be fed like a king, and leave comfortably full. Öppettider: Lunch: Monday-Saturday Noon-2pm Sunday Noon-3pm Dinner: Monday-Saturday 7:30pm-10pm [mermindre]
