More information on Canterbury

In this gorgeous part of town, close to Les Etangs d'Ixelles (The Lakes of Ixelles), which are surrounded by truly magnificent Jugendstil-mansions, is this agreeable young brasserie, which specializes in traditional cuisine. Classics like filet Américain (raw minced beef, prepared at your table), Gentse waterzooi (creamy chicken stew) and Vol-au-vent (another chicken speciality) are really state-of-the-art. The restaurant is run by the Niels family. Founding father Joseph is said to have 'invented' filet Américain in the 20's. Tasting it here, you will gladly believe that claim. The business is child-friendly; there is a special children's library on the premises.
