« Il n’était pas question de faire un guide touristique, mais plutôt de faire preuve de la même expertise qu’on a sur le territoire français, en Belgique. » Une interview d'@ElisabethDbrs signé Hughes Belin à retrouver dans L'@LEventail_BE ! https://t.co/FMrzyFZpAH

The reputed reference for foodies makes a point of carrying out all its research with incognito reviewers: experts who can give insight into the quality of establishments but who dine unannounced and unknown in order to get an authentic experience. Importantly, this means picking up the bill at the end, allowing them to truly assess the service that any member of the public might expect.
The guide says on its website that it has “scrutinized locations across Belgium, keeping only the crème de la crème: 400 joyful and sincere places, from snack bars to upscale restaurants.” It also includes reviews of wine shops, grocers and hotels.

“Over the course of the guide’s 164 pages, you’ll discover a slew of new locales across Wallonia, Flanders and Brussels, like the latest cider bar worth checking out, alongside well-established institutions, including a tavern opened over 250 years ago,” the site claims.
As well as reviews, the very first edition of Belgium’s Fooding guide includes articles that investigate the current trends in Belgian cuisine and dining.
