It's a takeaway chain, but it's also the source for the best "Luikse Wafel" in Belgium!…read more You have to admire Belgaufra's slogan: "Probably the best since 1950." There is no probably about it. This is it. The caramelization on these waffles cannot be beat -- you can eat them without toppings, just eat them! Often! No hours whatsoever are posted, but constant monitoring proved they open somewhere around 10am and are closed around 7pm. Go go go.

We heard this place gets busy so we booked our trip months in advance and am glad we did. I love…read morechocolates and I love museums so this worked out well for me. The experience itself was fun and informative and the best part...OMG the best part...you get to try the liquid chocolates at the end! They give you a spoon and you get to try around 15 different varieties. I wish I had known this before, I would have eaten something before it. A lot of liquid chocolate first thing in the morning is not a good idea but it was worth it and I would do it again.

This museum was an interactive fun experience! From the moment you start the partially virtually…read moreguided tour it's amazing. There are multiple rooms you get guided through with a little audio remote that have visuals and interactive displays on how chocolate is grown and processed. After that you get to view a massive area of chocolate art which is beyond impressive. There is an area where you can watch chefs make chocolate. Towards the end of the tour there is a chocolate tasting! They have about 8 machines with liquid chocolate in various flavors and you get to grab a spoon and taste all the chocolates. This was an amazing way to spend a few hours of our time in Belgium! The store they have is also insane. You can find just about any type of chocolate including chocolate shoes! I brought back so many yummy treats for my family and the pricing was very reasonable. If you're in Antwerp you have to come here!

I've been a regular customer of Goossens for 15 years. They had me hooked after I tried their…read moreAntwerp diamond chocolates, before then I didn't know how good white chocolate can be. The quality is truly the best in Antwerp and with such a wide variety of flavors, you can find something for everyone. The staff there is top notch, they are very knowledgeable about chocolate and are warm/ friendly. Top picks; Antwerp Diamond (white with champagne truffle filling), Rubens Pallet (milk with walnut filling), and TNT (dark with lemon/eucalyptus ganache and CO2 - yes, tastes like pop rocks, very unique!, red hearts (milk with fruit filling - these are both tasty and beautiful). Enjoy!

After living seven years in the US, I was kind of excited when I found about Grare American…read moreFoodstore. I decided to make a trip there.... and big dissapointment. The shelves are half empty, and it seems like the same products are repeated to create the ilussion of having more products than the ones that really are. In particular, I was very excited to drink some Snapple Apple - a product that you can find in every single store, gas station, supermarket, even liquor store in the whole country - just to find out that Grare American Foodstore does not sell it. I will probably not come back. I expecting much more from this place.

I'm an American living in Antwerp, Its been a little over a year since i've seen American Products!…read moreI was skeptical about what I was going to see when I walk into Graré, I LOVED IT! I was so happy to see almost every favorite of mine!! From Beer to Lawrys Seasonings to A1 Steak sauce! They even have laundry cleaning supplies!! Every soda you can imagine! The store is pretty tiny , but they have it all there! I was grabbing things of the shelves , with happiness, totally forgetting that i'm not in America, until I went to pay! Get ready, the prices are high, but, I say, its worth it!! Example ; 4 cans of Coors Light would be about 4 US Dollars , here , its costs 8 Euros!! Ill still be back!! Great store!! Great customer service as well!!

CHOCOLICIOUS We have…read moreordered once in-person and have subsequently ordered online twice. This chocolatier doesn't disappoint. Our most recent order was very custom - we specified which pralines we wanted in each box. We weren't sure of the names of the pralines, but they were incredibly helpful. We received our meticulously packed order and are preparing to send them to friends and family via Post. The size of the little box is perfect for slipping into a mailing envelope. It's a special treat for our U.S. friends and family to receive such a high quality product. Of course, we had to conduct our own taste test first. Delicious!

Caramel, fresh creams, pralinés, gianduja, black chocolates, milk, coffee, almond paste, walnut paste pistachio paste, fruit paste, liqueur, candied fruit, dragees... chocolates offering a real festival of flavours. Try also the different hand-rolled truffles really delicious something for connoisseurs. I also love the cute packaging, nice boxes and in every gift box you find carefully and delicately placed tissue paper. This shop is a heaven for chocolate lovers and if there would exist stars for chocolatiers Mary would be rated for sure as one of the highest. They are slightly more expensive but so good - a TOP Chocolatier !

Whenever I visit my family in Hong Kong, they'll silently hope that i'll bring some of Godiva's treasures.These little gems are like ambassadors for Belgium abroad. The chocolate covered strawberries (hand-dipped and seasonal) are one of their signature chocolate products. The art of dipping is certainly not as easy as it looks. Trust me, I already tried the copycat recipe at my humble kitchen. Or buy the biscuits topped with their smooth chocolate to foodpair with Godiva coffee. Life is like a box of chocolates, u never know what u gonna get, except when u handpick ur own chocolates and truffles assortment at Godiva!
