Oh how I'm impressed by Brussels! Who would have thought that of all places, Belgium would delight…read moreme with such Italian culinary wonderment? From Instagram: The 'Nduja and Lemon pasta is a signature year-round favorite dish at NONA Pasta restaurants in Brussels. It features fresh spaghetti alla chitarra tossed with spicy Calabrian 'nduja pork sausage, fresh lemon, and Parmigiano Reggiano, with an option to top it with creamy stracciatella. I love that this restaraunt has an onsite pasta atelier. They keep to traditional Italian recipes while sourcing local ingredients for a true farm to table experience. The end result, a masterpiece! Everything's fresh, authentic and flavorful. This particular dish, in my opinion is the star of the show. It IS somewhat spicy without being overbearingly hot...this is part of the allure. I'm sure that I'll visit again before leaving Brussels and will, yes - order the exact same dish! Must eat outside and do a bit of people watching as visitors transit the city center. While busy I was seated as soon as I arrived and service was great. The ultimate experience. Give it a try!

This delightful restaurant was the standout of all the places we ate in Brussels. The quaint…read moreatmosphere, dark lighting, clean atheistic and unwillingness to be chain-like all while still delivering quick and effortlessly delicious pasta is a marvel. They truly have trapped magic in a bottle. The menu isn't large but they do also have a rotating seasonal menu that accompanies it. All the dishes on the main menu are Italian classics done right. Most dishes have pork or beef. The pasta tasted very fresh and the portions were what you would want of a good Italian restaurant, plentiful. My "white" ragú was packed full of flavor and the beef was tender. The pecorino cheese used was perfect. All in all, this is the type of place that is always busy and with good reason. Since they don't take reservations lines do form at the front of both sister locations on the same block. Make the line, it moves fairly quickly. And if it doesn't it is still well worth it.

I recently found myself staying for a night in a part of Brussels I don't know and things didn't…read morelook good for dinner. Kebabs or frites looked most likely, but then Yelp suggested a decent pizza place just over the road from my hotel. The sit-down restaurant looks very pleasant, but the real star is the pizza. As you walk into the entrance hallway you're presented with a close-up view of a large wood-fired brick-lined pizza oven, with the main kitchen behind its' bulky presence. So far, so promising, but the best tools aren't much use without someone who knows how to use them. Luckily, Pantalone's pizzaiolo really knows his stuff. Don't get hypnotised watching the pizzaiolo at work! Walk past him and make a left. Place your order at the till and you'll get a receipt. Hand this to the pizzaiolo and then watch him go to work. A quattro stagioni was heaped with all the goodness I could have asked for and was made and cooked fresh, right before my eyes, in a little over five minutes. Sadly I was far too hungry to remember a picture. Finally, takeaway costs a couple of Euros less than if you eat in the restaurant.

Thank goodness we walked 20 minutes from our hotel and didn't think to reserve a table because we wouldn't have stumbled upon the new pizzeria Al Bacio otherwise! The pizza dough is the real deal, crispy thin good stuff made by Italians. (In fact, we were told the family's been making pizza for three generations.) Might be the best pizza I've ever had. The spritz and the antipasti platter were also excellent. Owners/servers were friendly and attentive, and it's a nice, quiet area to eat. That being said, this place is geared more towards takeout. If you like pizza, or maybe even if you don't like pizza, go here. You won't regret it!
