Join me in Stockholm at the lovely winebar 'E & G' on 7 December, 11.30h, for an Advent Brunch with plenty of food.
Ok. So Sophia and I hosted this pretty cool Brunch event as part of our Two Kitchens Brussels Supper Club & Cooking Class series (Click here to check this out).
Brunch time!!!!!!!!!
I think whoever invented brunch is a genius. Mixing the best parts
of breakfast with the best features of lunch and combining them into one
delicious meal. Getting up late on a weekend (hangovered or not), putting on
some lazy clothes and starting into the day with: coffee. Oh yes, before I had
my coffee you shouldn’t try to start any kind of conversation with me. Not
because I’ll be mean (ok, maybe sometimes), but simply because I can’t stop thinking
about that perfect drink in my hands. After coffee I am in for everything and
anything. Pancakes with fried egg, maple syrup and bacon?! Oh, yes! Chicken
& sweet waffles and some more sweet maple syrup on top?! Now we’re talking!
Truffled eggs toast with runny egg, melted cheese and truffle oil?! Get into my
belly!
I haven't written an individual post on a restaurant for a long time now. Simply, because I think that most people are more interested in an overview of several places, rather than reading 10 posts about different places (Tell me if I am wrong, I am happy to change this). Also, it obviously takes up more time, which I don't always have. But this one here is worth it.
Kitchen 151 deserves its own post - and here is why. First of all, I've spotted the place already during my first weekend here in Brussels in the beginning of November. As always, I start exploring the city by walking around, making a turn into little streets and discovering hidden places. So I had a look at their menu and it sounded very appealing, Middle eastern cuisine with an Ottolenghi-ish twist. The interior looked a lot like places that I normally like to go to; simple, yet nicely decorated - lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling, decorated with flowers, colorful water jugs and dried flowers - a wooden floor, simple wooden tables, pastel colors and that cosy feeling that you get when entering the place and sitting down.
