This basket of bread wasn't even my whole breakfast! I went to Le Pain Quotidien for a petit dejeuner but there was nothing petite about it. Le Pain Quotidien is an all-organic bakery/cafe that started in Brussels but is apparently all over the world now. I wish one would make its way to Columbus. The breakfast consisted of: a basket of assorted breads, a soft-boiled egg, fresh squeezed orange juice, coffee, and an array of various spreads and preserves. A bit expensive but delicious!
After the archives, I did more wandering of the streets. I found A La Bécasse in a small courtyard through a nearly hidden passageway just a block from the Grand Place. Not many tourists inside though.
A La Bécasse still serves Lambic beers in the traditional clay pitcher.
They also have cheap (for Brussels) snacks, open-faced tartines, etc... to eat.
After polishing off this platter, I experienced a massive jet lag attack and collapsed into a 3 hour nap!
