One Brussels café that is highlighted in bold on my mental map of the city centre, another one that isn't - and why "soul" might be what distinguishes them
P.S. I walked right through the neighborhood of Lord Byron on one side and Fin de Siècle on the other with a buttoned up Greenwich Modern, after my visit to MIMA and La Fonderie, when I was in Europe last week.
I suspect some of the waiters in Mort Subite may have been there since that 60s quote as well!!! There's *definitely* one or two who have been there since I first went in 20 years ago!
Le Greenwich was one of a small number of cafés listed in the guidebook I had for my first independent trip to Brussels, in 2002, and that's the only time I was in. It felt like intruding by not playing chess.
Downtown bars/cafes - thoughts on Au Bon Vieux Temps, A L'Imaige Nostre-Dame? I'm quite keen on those, different vibe in each though. Also keen to see if Billie's retains any of its Monk-ness. Oh. also Cirio.
"... isn’t really worn out, it’s worn in." Nice turn of phrase, that. Cheers.
