Great video and overall 'taste' of the city! Sometimes I have on YT travel videos 'in the background' while I'm doing other things, but I find I don't want to look away when yours are on...such nice visual clips. I also love the way you 2 enjoy experiencing all the good and not-so-good with an open and positive approach. Can't wait for Bruges...one of my favorite unexpected delights in Europe!

Nope, 3:16. Dutch is the dominating language. Simply because there are more people living in the Flemish part, than there are in the French part. 4/6 But it’s true that in the brussels and the surrounding area. French is spoken the most.
Of course it's worth it! Fries with cheese on it?? It's not Belgian at all. It's typically made for tourists like the waffles with a lot of stuff on it. You don't get that when you go to less touristic areas.
The Grande Place is really very impressive. There's a beautiful Tintin museum around the corner. As you mentioned, Belgium has a very complicated parliamentary system where the (wealthier) Flamish speaking part and the (poorer) French speaking part vote separately. Out of these separate elections, a coalition government has to be formed. As the Flamish part usually votes for more conservative and partly right extreme Parties, and the French part more leftist Parties, it can be very complicated. Belgium had a (world record) period of 592 days without a government between 2018 and 2020. Belgium also has over 3000 different beers, and I tried to taste as many as possible when I was there. I love Belgian chocolates. The waffles are good too. I had the impression that it's not that easy to get good homemade fries. The mussels are really tasty, but I got to my limits eating a whole pot. Brugge is a very beautiful city. Very excited therefore for your next episode.
Brussels city centre is VERY touristic and the quality of mussels and chocolate and food in general is very mediocre. And very expensive. Bruges is the top touristic attraction.. More of the same. Yes the city is pitoresque but you will find more tourists than real Belgian culture. There are better places to visit and better food to enjoy. Americans always do the same things over and over again. Waffles with loads of stuff on it. Fries with cheese on it??? And chocolate from the St. Hubertusgallery. You girls are burning your travel budget fast with junk.
Er zijn in het centrum van Brussel eerlijk gezegd opvallend veel goede restaurants en winkels, veel minder tourist-trap-achtig dan bijvoorbeeld in Amsterdam. Waarschijnlijk omdat de stad simpelweg minder toeristen aantrekt.
@@michelwolfs2273 Well well.. I traveled about 45 countries by now. Ate at 12 Michelin star restaurants but appreciate simple food too. If it is made with love. If you disagree about so many tourist traps and tourist food in Bruges you are blind. But I did not say there is exclusively junk food. Any place in Belgium has its charms. You just have to be able to find them.
What I criticize about your comment is that it denigrates a city that you apparently don't know like any good self-respecting Flemish person. As a Brussels resident it would never occur to me to criticize another Belgian city. In terms of open-mindedness we have no lessons to learn, Brussels, whether you like it or not, is the only city in Belgium which has an international stature and which despite everything remains a small, friendly provincial town.

0:46 tram =/= metro!
Manneken Pis has got a collection of over 1000 costumes, to see in a museum. Most of the time he stands naked.
Which restaurant did you get the mussels?

The climate of lower Belgium is about the same as the Netherlands

Cynical. Talk like a Dutch. Talking about money and not appreciating food because it costs money.

Très provincial comme commentaire,typique du paysan brugeois qui n’est jamais sorti de sa province et qui est un tantinet raciste😂
