Cookies: One of the most beloved cookies of Belgium is speculoos, especially those made by Maison Dandoy, the original creator. Alexandre Helson is the seventh generation of his family working in the company. Here he shows a cookie mold of his grandfather, which was used for special occasions.

Escargot: Eat local and traditional with these tasty creatures that are farm-raised. A typical appetizer of Belgian cuisine dating back to the Middle Ages, snails made a resurgence in the 19th century. After being cooked and preserved, the snail becomes escargot with a dose of olive oil and garlic.

Bread: At every meal there will be a wide range of breads from baguette to multigrain. Fresh bread is truly a beautiful thing in Belgium.
