I cant
thank universe enough to have Antwerp as my recent town to live.
Antwerp is such a vibrant city and know how to celebrate art,
history, culture and even the high end fashion, surrounded by 16th
century guild houses and Art Nouveau gems. Only for this reason I m
so thrill to call this city my home.
I
believe everyone who ever visited Antwerp will agree if I say that
Antwerp has its own beauty with beautiful tourism and everywhere you
go you will find many different kind of restos, tematic cafes,
traditional bistros that serve a superb dishes. If you are a culinary
seeker, this city wont let you down.
This Wednesday, #CeritaJalanAsik will share an article about our fave
brunch spot at our own town. Aggy from Dream Explore Wander is writing about her favorite brunch spots in Jogjakarta, and Noni from Nyonya
Sepatu shares her favorite brunch spot in Medan.

Brunch
in the weekend is a great time to embrace the mid-morning meal, we have selflessly brunch our way around the city and here are my fave brunch spots in Antwerp, which range from you can grab sandwiches
to-go or and where you can indulge longer mornings.
WASBAR
WasBar
as the name suggests, a launderette and a cafe all in one, with a
chic interior, pastel chairs and tables.
The
idea of this cafe is simply brilliant, one stop when when you can
enjoy your hot latte and your laundry is ready to be done.
Every
weekend, there is a buffet brunch, all you can eat for €20 per
person ( including prosecco ) which I consider a good bargain for
Antwerp's standard.

ESCOBAR
Located
pretty close to the Antwerp central station, Escobar is not a new
player in town, probably they opened their first door around 3 years
ago and since then it s always our fave stop to have our fresh mint
tea and homemade cake.
I love
the details of this cafe, so vintage and old school inspired. They
also have a cozy backyard, very enjoyable to sit during warm spring
or summer.
The
owner and staffs are very friendly and sweet, the owner himself is
originally come from Latin America ( Chile if I m not mistaken ) , so
you probably will love their Latin music collections.
Ah ya
btw, if your name is Escobar, come and visit Escobar and you will get
a free drink! :-)

NATIVE
Having
a bio vegetarian dishes for brunch? Why not! In fact I love
vegetarian menu, not only because it s healhty and actually I m not
get into too much meat or fish during the day, thus Native is perfect
to explore for me.
In
recent years, a growing trend toward vegetarianism has arisen due to
their increasing awareness of health, the environment and compassion
for animals. And Native can read this opportunity well!
Everyday
they serve a different kind of delicious organic foods, quiche with
quinoa instead of meat, risotto with roasted cauliflower
and black olive, and many more.

DE FOYER
Entering
De Foyer is like going back in time to the 19th century era, those
chandeliers, marble pillars and ornate dome that will blow you away
in a second you enter this building.
De
Foyer located on the 1st
floor of a La Bourla Theatre, in the past this is the place where the
guests come to eat before or after the show, but now they open for
the public.
La
Bourla Theatre itself is one of the famous building in town, the
circular neo classic building is a local's pride.
La
Bourla offers a good selection of food in a wide price range. I
enjoyed most of their Flemish traditional dishes.

LOJOLA
For
the love of an unique decoration and interior, I put Lojola as my
fave brunch in town. Located in the heart of the city, in one of most
atmospheric square ( Hendrik Conscienceplein ) in Antwerp, Lojola
serves different kind of pies, homemade cakes, pastries.
Every
girls will fall in love immediately by just passing by this small
cafe, especially in the summer where they put a lovely little chair
and rug in front of the cafe.

L'ENTREPÈŽT DU CONGO
Like
what I mentioned in the beginning, Antwerp is a city that proud with
its history. For instance this L’Entrepôt du Congo, back then in
early 1900s, this building was a warehouse stocking African coffee
and oil transported by boat to Antwerp's port. But now, you can
enjoying your brunch in this lovely resto with the original ornaments and details.
Eventhough
it is located very nearby to the tourist attraction, Museum of
Contemporary Art, but it always full with local customers, as local
knows their best resto to hop in, right?
