What food is Brussels famous for?

Question

Accepted Answer

An essential item on your gastronomic tour should be the famous Brussels waffle. Introduced in 1958 when the city hosted the World Fair, this sweet bread quickly became a local favorite, inspiring many varieties, including the Liège waffle. The Liège waffle is a sweeter and chewier variety made with caramelized sugar, so it’s undoubtedly a drool-worthy dessert. And you will have no trouble finding them. Waffles are available at many Belgian restaurants as well as street vendors. When it comes to these soft but crunchy treats, don’t limit yourself. You can eat them at any time of day, and it’s common to enjoy them for dessert with toppings like chocolate, fruit, and ice cream.
