While the weather is bearable again but not yet too cold and wet, why not enjoy some beers in a garden? Jardin Hospice is a beer garden hidden in a listed neoclassical hospice, dating back to the Dutch period. As old as the building is, as modern are the beers served: lots of Brussels Beer Project on draught, and beers from more local 21st century breweries can be found in the fridges!
UPDATE: Closed permanently…
We’ve had ramen and gyoza before, but we had no clue what donburi, kara age, or onigiri were, when we first read it on the menu of Kumiko. Although the food menu is definitely Japanese, you can’t simply call the place a Japanese restaurant: there is a cellar bar more suitable for drinking than eating, and a nice courtyard terrace. There is some Japanese macro beer available, with the brewery in the same block, a Brussels Beer Project beer would be the obvious choice here, unless the CraftWorks beer tickles your fancy more.
