Food Scene

Takeaway Greek - fresh, for us our favorite food in Bruges, certainly the best Greek, and a steal for the price. Try the wrap - with lamb or pork, or haloumi or squid. Salads too, great fries. GF and Veggie options.

If you're into artisan bread... this is it. Also great croque sandwiches, desserts, and quiche. (on this street there's a cute cheese shop and a jam shop, too.)

Sightseeing

The 'Princely Beguinage Ten Wijngaarde' with its white-coloured house fronts and tranquil convent garden was founded in 1245. This little piece of world heritage was once the home of emancipated lay-women who led a pious life. Today the beguinage is inhabited by nuns of the Order of St. Benedict and local women. In the Beguine's house museum you can still get a good idea of what day-to-day life was like in the 17th century. Outside you'll find the biggest gathering spot of swans in Bruges, horses and carriages, and a bunch of cafe/restuarants with a good view.
