The Classic: Mussels and Frites
Mussels and frites (yes, fries!) are the Beyoncé and Jay-Z of Belgian cuisine — a dynamic duo beloved by foodies worldwide. This iconic dish has roots in Belgium’s coastal regions, where mussels were once a wallet-friendly meal for fishermen. The crispy fries? Well, Belgium practically invented those golden sticks of joy. Food historians often trace mussels and frites’ rise to fame back to the 18th century.
With us, mussels are prepared to perfection. Fresh, plump mussels are steamed with garlic, white wine, herbs, and a touch of magic (a.k.a. our chef’s special touch), served alongside golden, twice-fried frites.
Want to level up? Pair this dish with a crisp Belgian blonde ale or a refreshing saison. The beer’s effervescence cuts through the richness, making every bite—and sip—a celebration. It’s comfort food, Belgian-style, done oh-so-right!
Steak & Frites: Belgian Steak with a French Influence
Steak au Poivre, a dish with French influence, finds a cozy home in Belgian cuisine, where hearty flavors and sophisticated techniques meet. The dish’s roots trace back to classic French cooking, but Belgians give it their own robust twist — because why not make something great even better? Traditionally, it’s all about the peppercorn crust, seared steak, and a luscious pan sauce made with cream, butter, and a splash of brandy
At Taste of Belgium, our version features tender flank steak cooked to perfection, seasoned generously with cracked black pepper, and topped with a silky, peppery sauce. Pair it with steak and eggs — fluffy farm-fresh eggs and crispy potatoes — for a breakfast-to-dinner upgrade. A Belgian Tripel beer seals the deal, its malty base and fruity notes elevating every bite with a touch of brightness. It’s bold, flavorful, and unforgettable!
Belgian Meatballs: A Comfort Food Favorite
Belgian meatballs are the culinary equivalent of a warm hug. This comforting dish hails from Liège, Belgium, where it’s been a staple since the 19th century. Traditionally made with a mix of beef and pork, breadcrumbs, and herbs, these meatballs are simmered in rich sauces made in-house in our scratch kitchen.
At Taste of Belgium, we keep the culinary tradition alive with a modern twist. Our Belgian meatballs are juicy, perfectly seasoned, and served with your choice of a classic Belgian sauce or marinara for a fun, customizable touch. Pair them with a side of crispy frites or a fresh salad, and don’t forget the beer! A robust Belgian Dubbel or a dark ale perfectly balances the savory flavors, making every bite a celebration of comfort and taste.
Creating a Well-Rounded Belgian Dinner Experience
Crafting the perfect Belgian dinner experience at Taste of Belgium is like building a delicious symphony — every course plays its part! Start with a fresh salad, like our Garden Salad with crisp veggies, shaved parmesan, and a tangy red wine vinaigrette. Pro tip: Add grilled or fried chicken for extra flair.
Or try the Harvest Salad, a flavorful mix of herbed farmer’s cheese, Granny Smith apple, roasted sweet potato, and farro topped with pomegranate molasses vinaigrette — it’s practically a meal on its own!
For sides, you can’t skip Belgian fries (crisp, golden perfection) or roasted vegetables, which bring a comforting, hearty vibe to any main dish. Finish your meal with a dessert that truly seals the deal. A Liège waffle drizzled with caramel or a creamy chocolate mousse is the sweet encore you need. It’s the kind of dinner that turns into a story you’ll want to share again and again!
