Brussels, Belgium

Belgium, a country filled with loads of beer, chocolate, mussels and frites. Alas, the country is small  but its culinary offering will be sure to whet your appetite. For seafood lovers in particular, one of my favorite pit stops was lunch at Noordzee - Mer Du Nord in Brussels where you make your picks from a large selection of fresh seafood. 

Oh, and don't forget to visit the main square of Brussels at night. All the buildings in the square light up, making it feel even more grand than it already is. If you ask me, it is a pretty spectacular 360 view. 
Finally, if you are visit Brussels by the Eurostar and if you can spare an extra day (or even two) then I would encourage you to make the most of your journey by making a day visit to Bruges and / or Ghent. Unfortunately I was only there for a weekend and ran out of time. Nevertheless, these two destinations have been added on my travel wish list.
