So I joined the huge crowd gathered in front of the store to buy cuts of German sausages (including…read moreplenty of types of blood sausages). She cuts them and weighs them, with selections like foie gras and many, many others (you can tell which words I can understand, and everything else I just pointed and figured if there's only a bit left, it's gotta be good right?) and reading up online how to cook them, I guess you boil them for like 20 min. Except... I never actually got to try the sausages, having missed my alarm and not wanting to miss my flight back to NY, and not able to bring back meat to the states... so sadly I had to leave them behind. But they looked good! (small chunks of like 4-5 sausages, about 6 euros)

Visiting Catherine's was a bucket list experience that I'm glad I was able to do. The best part was…read moreCatherine herself making our sandwiches! We were able to make selections from over 100 different cheeses as well as a variety of cured meats. The sandwich rivals my other fave from Alain Alain in Paris. It's a small but charming and quintessential Belgian shop. Traditional in every sense of the word. Simply put, it's a cheese lover's paradise. Catherine is extremely kind and patient as are her employees. They offer the ability to taste samples before making decisions. They're very helpful with making said decisions as well. A haven for like minded cheesemongers means the line can sometimes go out the door, especially at lunchtime. It is well worth the wait because so much love and care goes into every transaction with every customer. A most divine experience indeed.

What's not to love about Catherine...the cheese, the meat, the bread, the made to order $5 Eur…read moresandwiches and especially the owner - Catherine. Was so looking forward to our return trip to Brussels and visiting Catherine's. Over our week long stay we managed 3 visits to pick up cheese, freshly sliced deli meat, bead and made to order sandwiches. The cheeses that we selected were so very fresh and the selection to choose from was amazing. Of course my favorite was the truffle. We picked up sandwiches on two occasions and they were basically the same. The second one Catherine added a new little taste with the addition of three small roasted peppers. We had forgotten to ask for arugula and Catherine asked if we wanted it on this one...what a memory. Catherine's is a small place and always very busy. Quality shines throughout. The customers are almost all locals...another great sign. We noticed that when there were about three people inside that the patrons formed a line out of the door. Think out of respect for Catherine. Wish we had had a quality shop like Catherine's in metro Atlanta. We would drive to experience this and here in the hustle and bustle of Brussels there is a gem. Highly recommend. Prices are extremely reasonable. Can't wait to return...sooner than later. Thanks Catherine.

The lady working in the store (perhaps her name is Agnès) seems to treat the locals from the neighborhood much better and has a completely different attitude and standard towards her non-Belgian customers. We called her bluff...we could smell her bs...it is her shop and she can treat her customers however she chooses.... Her business card states, "Making your belly happy is our mission." If she had a pleasant and honest demeanor and was aware of cultural differences, I believe she would find it translates to larger sales, happy customers, and repeat business no matter what are her customers' origins...just sayin'!! We can and will shop elsewhere. C'est la vie.

Great products and the owner is very very nice. Recommended! Try the cheese with truffles..read more
