On what basis is this place getting five big ones? Well, it's not a Michelin Guide superstar…read morerestaurant. What it is is a very great example of what the Belgian coast does so well. A friterie (Fr), frituuror (Nl), or frying place that serves ice cream. So if it's fried, this place has it. The beignets are to die for. Oh my. Great outer texture. Soft interior with the right amount of powdered sugar on top. Forget about the ones in New Orleans. You have to come here. The waffles? Oh so delightful. Crispy on the outside and delicate fluff on the inside. Even better than the ones in the Grand Place in Brussels. Although my family likes another place for ice cream better, this is my favorite in Koksijde. The right amount of cream and well flavored with more bits inside. So it's not a dining locale. Don't come here because you think you'll get fine food. It's fried, Belgian style. Maybe a quick bite at lunch. But for gouter or after dinner tasting, it's worth the trip.
