It is also a store for music and computer-related items picture Bestbuy and Barnes/Noble combine together. While I was still stuck on TinTin and still fascinated by the fact that the Smurfs were also from Belgium, the Belgians had gone on to other types comics. I stopped to look for a classic TinTin's comic book that was a collector's item and was astonished by the racks of comic books on the wall. My bf on the other hand bought the latest edition of The Chefs of Belgium where many of his friends' recipes were featured in the book. FNAC was quite a large store with three floors compared to other stores in the square. I enjoyed shopping there. If you were looking for a comic book definitely stop by the store.

While we were browsing, she explained the difference between needlepoint lace and Bruges' original bobbin lace. Also, she told us a bit about the Rose of Bruges pattern. There is a good selection of products available. Not the cheapest, but the quality is good, and this is great if you would like to learn a bit more about what you're buying. Apparently they also run a lace-making school.

The spot allows you to do laundry and eat at the same time. I had the chia seed yogurt dish. Pretty filling and healthy, so good for a vacation if you're trying to take a break from the sweets.

I ordered a brunch there and the portion was huge. The idea…read moreof grabbing something to eat while waiting for your laundry to be done is great. Make sure you set a longer time on the dryer if you want your clothes completely dried. The price of doing laundry is reasonable considering the location and the cleanliness of the place. You don't even have to buy any detergent as it is included in the price! ( 5 euro for washing and 2.5 euro for drying per load)

This was my favorite shop in all of Belgium and Netherlands on this trip! There were so many…read morebeautiful and well curated things that happen to be up my alley. I got a couple of the little lady necklaces (see photos) that were just adorable and unique. Never seen anything like these before! Also got a pair of earrings of flowers--the shape of a poppy, I think--and they offered a few styles and sizes of these in multiple colors. The shop lady said this jewelry designer is the designer for the Queen of Belgium, who, I take it, is quite fashionable. There were some great hats there and some gloves unlike I've ever seen before. There was so much packed in this little shop, and I'd recommend this to any #fashion lovers, or for those who appreciate arts, artisans and super unique wearable items. LOVED. Bring plenty of money, you'll have trouble deciding which items you are taking with you!

If you're a Christmas lover like me this is a must do. I try to get ornaments from every country I…read morevisit and this was THE PLACE to get that. The ornaments and overall Christmas decor in here is nothing like I've ever seen. I ended up buying a couple of things pictures, the glass tree and snowman tea candle holder. Everything in the store is absolutely gorgeous so you can't go wrong. I think it's a tad pricey, but what do you expect at a higher end Christmas store and in a touristy spot? All of the employees were super kind and offered to help with different selections of ornaments and decor while shopping. I would definitely recommend stopping by if you have the time!

Buyer Beware! We loved the store until all the stuff we bought started falling apart. They honor…read morenothing and don't respond to emails and don' answer calls. Items from street vendors are better quality! They either swapped items with broken or broke them wrapping, then refused to honor. Waste of time and money and they overcharge for everyrhing. They are looking to take tourist money and run! It's polished garbage and nothing more.
