Dame Blanche and Al Capone

A quick note about Sunday dinner…it was amazing! We’ve had a lot of good food in Brussels, but this took the cake. Not too much is open on Sunday evening, so it was either this place or Pizza Hut, and we’d already had Pizza Hut last week. We entered the restaurant severely underdressed (whoops…), but we were hungry and desperate. Ben ordered a toboulah dish and I got fish. WOW- we’ll be taking anyone who comes to visit to this place…incredible food. To top it off, we ordered his recommendation for dessert which was a glorified hot fudge Sunday…the Dame Blanche. Yowzers, the Belgians know how to do Chocolate and ice cream…A-mazing. Our waiter was great too- he asked us where we were from and we said Chicago (sorry Morton, no one really knows you…). He answered, “Ahhh, yes, the city of Al Capone!” So, here’s to you Al Capone for owning Chicago in the minds of Belgians’ everywhere.
