Restobieres, Brussels - Alain whips up a hot desert

On arrival at Restobieres we are greeted by Alain Fayt who reminded me somewhat of the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld as we were 10 minutes late for our booking, and got relegated to the upstairs outside (undercover) storage area, with the air of "no hope of having lunch today". Luckily for us we had just meet up with Tim Webb and Yvan De Baets (Brasserie De La Seene), and they were able to change the tune, and miraculously another table was found and we had an amazing afternoon of beer, food and entertainment by Alain.
"For dessert, Alain Fayt whips the eggs tableside with cherry-flavoured kriek beer, working his whisk as if it were possessed and churning out a hot, cloudlike sabayon."
This is a must visit location for beer in Brussels, or even the reason to visit Brussels, but don't be late for your booking, or else - "no beer for you"
