(hello, Moeder Lambic) I was staying at an airbnb where my front entrance opened up to the Grote Markt. I started my day looking on the Yelp app for a good brunch spot. I came across Jam as one of my searches, they place did not disappoint. I ordered the Royal Bouncer which was a fried egg with that gooey yolk goodness dripping down. I had a coffee and enjoyed my early afternoon by people watching and seeing the tram go by every several minutes. The service was friendly and I can see locals and the hip come here for brunch since the dishes looks awesome for that 'gram.

Super cute restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating…read more The food was very good, but the service was slow. Since that's typically been my experience on Europe, I'm not too upset about it. We waited 20-30 minutes for a menu, and probably placed our order 1 hour into our meal. When our food finay came, they forgot my food. Luckily, they were able to get my Kheema skillet to me in about 5 minutes, and they were very apologetic. The food tasted great, so I would definitely visit again sometime.

The menu didn't state the times of breakfast and lunch (the breakfast menu was a lot more appetizing).

Everyone was enjoying delicious looking drinks and bagels. I ordered my two bagels to-go - the Bagel Chick and the Bagel Deli. All of the reviews rave about the bagels, but really they're just okay. Maybe I'm a bit spoiled because of my visits to New York and the huge availability in general in America. I don't think the bagels at Barnini are made fresh each morning. Bagels should not taste that dry. At least the Bagel Chick had a guacamole mayonnaise, but my husband wasn't so fortunate with the Bagel Deli. And if you're a bagel cafe, how can you only serve one type of bagel? If I were rating Barnini just on its bagels, I would give 3 stars. But my rating includes the ambience, which for me adds an extra star. Even though the bagels are average, I would love to go back for a coffee and pastry (the cakes and pies looked great) for breakfast or in the afternoon with a friend because the place is so gezellig.

My absolute favorite thing is the green eggs, but I have not included a photo as they are not photogenic. They are super tasty. My second favorite thing is the daily quiche. Usually with veggie meals you leave feeling unhungry but not really satisfied. This is not the case at Tinsel. My breakfasts are so good that I'm good to go until the evening. Only word of warning is that the afternoons on weekends the place is packed and not fun. Best to go early or weekdays if you want a relaxing meal.

We walked in without a reservation and were seated immediately…read more We opted for the orange juice and hot chocolate. Both were fresh. For food we got the avocado toast which was extremely well made loaded with hummus and greens and topped with sriracha. So good! We also got the bubble waffle with chocolate syrup. The waffle was extremely light. Obviously a must try !! Great modern ambiance and service.

I wasn't expecting much other than the aesthetic and unique fusion aspect, but it actually blew and exceeded my expectations. The cafe has an amazingly cozy atmosphere with spacious tables, and the menu has so many fantastic options I wish I could come back everyday to retry it. We decided to go for one savory and one sweet option (nordic waffle and biscoff), and both were out of the world. The bubble waffles were soft and pillowy, going well with the toppings we chose. The nordic waffles came with a generous portion of salmon (so fresh and tasty), avocados, and creme sauce. It tasted so healthy and refreshing. The biscoff waffles came with a generous dose of biscuit crumbs, ice cream, chocolate sauce, powdered sugar, and whipped cream - a perfect balance on the waffle. I would recommend this place to anyone coming to Antwerp!
