restaurant review #559 – Frituur with vegan options! Had a nice ‘fast food dinner’ before going to a show at nearby de Roma – Paul Carrack!Vegan snacks are clearly labelled and fries are baked in plantbased oil (unfortunately still a rarity in Belgium).

restaurant review #412 – On our way back home from Bospop festival in the Netherlands in the Summer of 2023, we had a nice lunch in yet another vegan restaurant. Humm in Antwerpen serves Middle Eastern cuisine.So great to see all these new vegan restaurants (when I went vegan in 2009, there were only two in Belgium 😮).

restaurant review #202 – Greenway is a Belgian vegetarian brand (restaurants and products) and was founded in the mid nineties. There are three Greenway restaurants in Belgium: in Ghent (it’s been ages since I was there!), in Louvain and in Antwerp. There’s also a Greenway foodstall at the train station of Gare du Midi, where we had a nice lunch before boarding on the Eurostar to London (previous reviews of Greenway here). In 2018, Greenway announced that all it’s restaurants would become fully vegan! This is from a visit to Greenway in Antwerp, at the beginning of Summer. The menu is on a board above the counter.

We choose the cheese platter (19€, came with bread on the side) and the cheeze croquettes (12€), with additional fries on the side (2€). The vegan cheeses are from Serotonina, a Polish company. The cheeses can also be bought at Récollets, but onfortunately we still had a show to go to that evening (Paul Simon’s farewell tour). And it was a very hot day, and we didn’t have any cooler in the car neither. For dessert we shared a coupe brésilienne (7,50€). It was ages since I had eaten a coupe brésilienne at a restaurant (well, propably since going vegan)! The icecream is homemade by Récollets. Definitely one of the best …
