That night we checked out a bar called Delirium Cafe which currently holds the world record for the most beers available, almost 2,500!! It was a very relaxed atmosphere, with plenty of room for people to spread out! My favorite was the Floris Passion a passionfruit flavored beer and the Kasteel Red a cherry flavored beer!
Their website is pretty cool showcasing all of the beers they make and whatnot, http://www.delirium.be/ and http://deliriumcafe.be/
The next day we got up pretty early and enjoyed the free breakfast at the hostel. Before we moved out to discover Brussels in daylight. We found the famous "Manneken Pis" rumor has a young boy was separated from his father and found much later urinating on the street corner.. There are several different legends about the little boy from an ancient Duke baby to a young boy who peed on a fuse and saved the city from destruction. A very funny but odd statue!
Brussels is a city famous for its food, so eat we did! All the famous foods are sold right on the street in little carts or similar to an ice cream shop window. First we tried the famous belgian fries (they fry them right infront of you!) topped with a zesty cheese sauce, actually I have no idea what it was they just put it on the fries, but whatever it was it was amazing. We also tried out the famous belgian waffles, which they also cook right infront of you and top with whatever you like, I opted for simple nutella. Simple, but perfection for my tastebuds!
It is pretty obvious I have quite the sweet tooth, so naturally I LOVED the famous belgian chocolate. There was a chocolate store every other boutique each offering any kind of chocolate you could imagine! Unfortunately my single backpack was already packed quite tightly with not a ton of extra room for chocolate, so I just had to eat it, horrible I know..
