An ode to Belgium's amiable and authentic culinary heritage

In Belgium, if you look hard enough, you can still find dozens of restaurants where time seems to have stood still. Most of them aren’t that well known, and that’s a shame: these places really deserve to be cherished. Because they are witnesses of the past, with an interior that hardly has been touched for decades, and because they offer a taste of the cooking of olden days: hearty and heartily food, with straightforward and pure flavours. In Bistro Belge, Toni De Coninck tells the story of these establishments, and of the people who work there.

He visited restaurants all over Belgium, from West-Flanders (’t Hommelhof in Watou) to Luxembourg (Le Moulin Hideux in Noirefontaine) and from Limburg (Tante 'auntie' Julia in Stevoort) tot Brussels (Le Taverne du Passage). He learned all there is to know about the history of these places and the families who run them, and also gathered some recipes of speciality dishes that have been prepared in the exact same way for generations. The photos in this book complement the texts; they immerse the reader into the warm-heartedness that is so typical of the Belgian culinary heritage.

Toni De Coninck is a writer and journalist, and the editor-in-chief of the online travel and food magazine june. He writes about all kinds of pleasant things in life, specialising in travel and gastronomy. 

In België zijn nog verschillende tientallen restaurants te vinden waar de tijd lijkt te hebben stilgestaan. Vaak zijn ze weinig bekend, en dat is zonde, want dit zijn plekken om te koesteren. Als getuigen van het verleden – want het decor is er de voorbije decennia niet of nauwelijks veranderd – én omdat je er het beste uit grootmoeders keuken kunt eten: eerlijk en puur, hartig en hartelijk.

In Bistro Belge vertelt Toni De Coninck het verhaal van deze restaurants en de mensen die er werken. Hij bezocht etablissementen van West-Vlaanderen (bijvoorbeeld ’t Hommelhof in Watou) tot Luxemburg (bijvoorbeeld Le Moulin Hideux in Noirefontaine) en van Limburg (bijvoorbeeld Tante Julia in Stevoort) tot Brussel (bijvoorbeeld Le Taverne du Passage). Hij leerde er over de geschiedenis van plekken en families, en kreeg soms ook een recept mee van een specialiteit die al generaties lang op dezelfde manier wordt bereid. De teksten en foto's in Bistro Belge dompelen je onder in de gemoedelijkheid die het Belgische gastronomische erfgoed kenmerkt.

Most durable one yet and it lights up. Our dog loves it.
Our dog destroys every other ball we've tried but this brand. I like the upgrade of being able to recharge it. She's a whole different dog when it's lit up. We're on her 4th one now and so far she hasn't torn any of them up. The ones with that were AA batteries always shorted out.

Best disco ball!
Had the old version of these balls that had batteries you actually replaced. This one is much better because you plug it in. My dog always loved this ball, because it's soft enough that she can take it in her mouth. And I love the color change. I got one for my daughter and her dog too, because I knew he loved them too.

Issues still persist even with the new rechargable version.
Nite Ize just can't get this figured out. This ball is by far my dogs favorite ball. We play ball daily, and when we don't get in a ball session during the day, we pull one of these out after dark. The problem persists even on the new rechargeable design. They just don't last. With the old battery operated version we just knew we would spend the 25 or so dollars each month to purchase a new one as the light mechanism would fail. When they updated to the rechargeable version I was ecstatic to try it. I bought one and it lasted an entire month before we lost it over a fence. I purchased a replacement thinking that Nite Ize finally figured out the design. I was wrong, this one lasted for about 6 or 7 evenings of ball fetching and stopped working. Just a disappointment that they can't get this issue solved.

Doggy and Daddy like the pretty lights
My dog loves this ball! So do his friends. He's not much of a ball guy during the day, but loses his mind with this ball. And I like it because the pretty changy colors agree with my edibles. Very durable and the charge seems to last at least five hours.
