Hello, I have been in Belgium for 3 days and I am in dire need of a super large, american cup of java! Where can I find it in Brussels? Also, just as when I lived in the US I always saw those ethnic mini-markets, I was wondering if there's ...

Heid, what part of carrefour has these items? You have my curiosity, I work right next to the store so I have to go there to get food for lunch, if I don't bring my own. Read More


Weekly meet up for drinks? by Mayo5
I'm guessing there will be little response to this, but does anyone have any interest for a weekly meet up at a different bar. Something casual, fun, and relaxing. We could try a new bar in a different area each week, and just keep rotating? ...

Thanks World°µÍø½ûÇø, I've been looking at the Metro lines and the transportation information, trying to get a better handle on it. I expected that from reading all of the other threads about apartments and issues, it's just hard to know how accurate ... Read More

Thanks Melby. Thanks for the suggestions World°µÍø½ûÇø, I'm looking into those. I've been considering Ixelles and Etterbeek. I will be working in Woluwé Saint Lambert, so I'm looking there as well but I hadn't heard of Kraainem and Tervuren. Thanks Read More
