It's Liège idd. Another city in Belgium btw.

[@LyciaD3]

if you meet a belgian that get offended by the word french fries, it's an idiot :) I'm from Liège and i can tell you why the americans called it french fries... it's because there's a verb "French" that means cutting in small pieces... wich is the way french fries are cut...

[@maxime867]

Liège!:(

[@maartenvangeel6017]

@@LyciaD3 yes it is because they are frenched. But how many people know that? Most think it is from France. So when people say french fries, 90 % or more believes it is French. So getting agitated about that does not make one an idiot. I used to serve foreigners all the time and i made sure they knew why it was called that. USA even changed the name into freedom fries because of dispute with the French. Such things do annoy me.

Hey this brought back happy memories of staying with my brother and his family when he lived and worked in Brussels in the early 2000s. Belgian chocolate has to be the ultimate temptation and the waffles too. Don't forget Belgian beer - there are some awesome brands! One thing we were told to watch out for is the fact that Belgium is a bi-lingual country, - some speak French, some speak Flemish and it's best not to assume either!! Great video as always and 2:13 LOL :)

To answer your question about fries: (sorry fellow Belgians) Fries, as we know it today, where invented by a French dude. He saw the dollar marks in his eyes and expanded his business to Belgium. But Belgians weren't very fond of the taste of it, so we made those fries better. pre-bake the potato-fries at 160°C till they are soft (yes, you need to squeeze them to know), then let the fries cool down, next bake them again at 180°C till they are golden-yellow-ish... ad a pinch of salt and enjoy! Great video btw x

Never get fries without sauce :D Mayonaise is the number one choice. There's a "people's praline", from the Leonidas stores. Every Belgian town has a town hall, a postal office, a supermarket, a bakery, butcher, friture and a leonidas. You can go in and get one of the golden boxes (small, medium, large, etc.). They offer a variety of pralines and Leonidas has classics (like the white one with the almond) and newer variations they mix up. It's what you get your girlfriend's mother, your own mother, yourself if you're feeling particularly Belgian that day :D Glad you enjoyed our country, other cities like Hasselt, Leuven, Gent, Brugge, Antwerpen are beautiful too!

A praline is made using Belgian chocolate (nowadays even Swiss chocolate but packaged in Belgium hence the 'made in Belgium' trademark) so to a Belgian, they are not considered as the real deal. If you want to taste more yummy and way less expensive chocolate (like locals do), simply visit a supermarket/grocery store and buy brands like Jacques or Cote d'Or or Callebaut. You can get them with all kinds of stuffings too. Price comparison: 15€ for 500gr pralines (Neuhaus/Godiva/..) as to 7€ for 500gr of chocolate bars of the forementioned brands. Pralines are eaten or given on special occasions and are more 'snobby' due to their expensiveness and please visit a 'chocolatier' (you will thank me later 😉). If you are into history/culture/architecture, please visit Brussels/Antwerp/Leuven/Brugge/Gent/the Ardennes (Battle of the Bulge) and Ieper (Flemish fields). So breezing through my little Belgium will last more then 2 days 🙂 Oh: and please visit a small local brewery.. a tasty beer awaits you. Enjoy your stay 👍

Definitely the "people's" waffles from Liége for walking snacks...🤗 Sauce Andalusian for the friets is even less touristy (and delicious)...🤓 Did you venture into Café Delirium... Cutest label for 🍺 (has a pink elephant)

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We checked out Delirium - overwhelming selection huh! We actually preferred some of the other bars though, where there's 20 or so on tap and the staff can chat about them. Wish we could pack a Liege waffle with us daily 🤣

[@mitchvanhaut2290]

Dandoy, you should have speculoos, there are way better spots to get waffles, same thing with chocolate. Neuhaus is a big player in Belgium, better to go to the small artisanal shops to get the authentic experience. If you need any tips on Belgian food feel free to ask me

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Always tricky to know where to go when theres so many options!

[@mitchvanhaut2290]

@@DanegerAndStacey yeah, you never get the full experience without a local. I always try to go to countries where I know someone. Getting to know people I do by staying in hostels. But I'm slowly running out of countries that I know people at. 50 and counting

[@frops7698]

how come you could go on top of the tower, it's completely private :'( (and yes, advice from a local, don't put anything on your Liege waffles, it's already a lot on its own :p)

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We got invited by Brussels Tourism to check it out and share the view :)

[@frops7698]

@@DanegerAndStacey nice! really cool view!

[@veroniquejeangille8248]

In fact, what you call "normal waffles" (the Brussels ones) are not the common waffles. We eat them at fairs (usually with our hands despite the toppings) but not usually at home. At home, we do plainer kinds of waffles. Not even the Liège ones because they make the waffle iron so dirty with the sugar chunks caramelising in it ! There are plenty of recipies. I would say every household used to have their own ;-). I supppose now most people would buy them ready-made in the supermarkets but I still bake my own.

[@stephaniegruenberg7044]

My #1 reason I want to visit Belgium is for all the food. (Especially chocolate and waffles) I think I might have drooled a little watching them put the chocolate inside the Liege waffle! I want to eat all the chocolate

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We still dream about these waffles, would fly 24hrs back to Belgium just to eat them again 😂

[@RenegadeRanga]

Stacey's summary was gold, "honestly I would be obese if I lived in Brussels."

[@DanegerAndStacey]

😂 it’s so true!

[@hadassteimetz]

Well I liv in Antwerp and there is not such a big different

[@eileenkds3630]

I find it very funny how a traditional thing in every big city in the world has a 'touristy' version :p The liege waffles are a great example , most (if not all :D) Belgians eat it without any addition. I know that in Prague you've got the same thing with their spiraled cone, the fillings are purely for the tourist :P

[@kidstubegaming8896]

In Brussels ther is à good restaurant de patatje zak à lot of people of Brussels And Limburg loved

[@BemuzedBookworm]

the Liège/Luikse waffle should just be eaten plain normally ;) but OK ... I'll forgive you. The typical kiosk will only have the plain one

[@veroniquejeangille8248]

Indeed, I was quite surprised to see them filled with stocks of chocolate !!

[@camille2635]

Hey! I'm from Liège! The city where the waffles come from! I usually take mine with cinnamon!

Rabbit is on most menus in Belgium. I hope you try it and let us know what you think. I found the sweet dishes better than the savoury in Belgium.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Sweet is the winner for us as well. Tried the Flemish stew and enjoyed it though!

If you ever go back to Belgium, you have to go to Bruges. To me, it's the best, cosiest city in Belgium.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Sounds like everyone recommends it! We will have to return

[@tipstapstoups]

Why didn’t you eat the Liege (liheyge) waffle from Maison Dandoy?? 😭 they’re the best !! Instead of a touristy corner street shop, that’s a pity but yeah. We don’t use toppings much on our waffles 🙂 they’re just good on their own.

[@jamesp.sullivan5124]

okay, i'll come to brussels to try them :p *takes the train for 20min* :D

I don't know this for sure but I think the "people wafel" is called the Volkswafel as a pun to Volkswagen

Oh interesting!

10:52 for the americans who instantly crinch on the word mayonaise. i have to note that in america the mayonaise (apparently) is discusting and a HUGE Diffrence from belgium mayonaise. the reason for this is that (i hurd) in america there are no restrictions on the recipe and volume of ingredients. in belgium on the other hand u need to have a certain amount % of ingredients of eggs,oil etc so thats why belgium mayonaise is amazing.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Definitely is a huge taste difference - we're not American, but can definitely see the taste change

Did you visited the Cartoon and comics museum? :)

Kind of felt like we didn't need to, there's the big comic strip murals all over the city!

I saw only 1 slightly overweight person in all of the video stream!!! How is that possible with all that great food?!?!?!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

That's the real question isn't it?!

[@martinc.720]

C Banks Portion sizes. Servings are reasonable for one person, compared to the United S... I mean some other countries where you’re served food for 3 people and a small bucket of your favourite soft drink ☺️. And people walk a LOT more. Also, less processed food and they know what veggies are ;)

[@lavh4406]

We eat vegetables every day... I only eat fries or stuff like this 1 time a month, sometimes 2months
