Before heading out of Ghent, we made a pit stop for ice cream at Cremerie Gérard…read more We dropped in on a Saturday afternoon (around 12:45pm) and there was a small queue. Most people were grabbing takeout. The one worker manning the till was oddly flustered and annoyed when our Dutch friends tried to pay with card. He complained about being charged using a foreign card (when it wasn't) so we told him to just charge the extra €0,50 to use it. There were a dozen flavours available (including three sorbet options). - Single scoop (€2,00) - our friend went with the strawberry. - Double scoop (€4,00) - we picked the pistachio (€0,20 extra) and lemon meringue yoghurt. The ice cream had a good texture and consistency. Lemon meringue was tangy. Worth a stop if you're looking for ice cream. 3.5 stars.

I was searching for dessert on a rainy Friday night, and with most places already closed, this one…read morewas luckily open. I'd grabbed a scoop of stracciatella ice cream on top of a Belgian waffle, and it was absolutely delicious. The stracciatella was nice and comforting, while the Belgian waffle was the real winner; very sweet, drizzled in chocolate syrup, decadent, rich, and great texture. I surprisingly hadn't tried too many waffles during my time here in Belgium, but this was already my favorite and will stand out in my mind in comparison whenever I order one, wherever I am in the world. If not sold out, you can order from several different toppings on your waffle including strawberries, whip cream, and more.

There are no prices on display and we went for the full serving with strawberries, chantilly and a scoop of ice cream. What could it cost, right? 6 EUR? 8 EUR each? It's a waffle produced en masse, some whipped cream, a seasonal fruit and ice cream (1EUR per scoop?). The very unfriendly lady handed us the waffles and asked for a shocking 12EUR per serving. That's a full meal at a lunch place! Was it good? Yes. Worth it? No! It's a waffle, fruit, cream and ice cream. You can make this at home for almost no money. Of course it's not your home and of course you pay for the experience and that it's made for you, but in combination with deliberately keeping you in the dark regarding prices, this place is a rip off. And yes, I speak Dutch and French as well. So, no language barrier here.

The noodles were thinner than spaghetti, the sauce was a creamy orangish color, and there was low quality cheese grated on top. The cheese had a funny taste...reminded me of something chemical or plastic. The noodles were too soft and there needed to be more sauce. There wasn't any hint of garlic in my dish. Overall, a place for a quick lunch, the small was a decent sized portion for me.
