Three delectables of Antwerp:
Lange Wappe (in front of Het Steen) is a statue from Antwerpen folklore about a giant who sounds a bit like Paul Bunyan's evil Belgian brother - he taunts drunks, cheats at games with children, laughs like the devil, and if Wikipedia is correct he also steals great milk...
mmm…Carolus, a dark Belgian brew. This was recommended to me by the bartender at a little pub with a massive selection of beer.
...and one massive pot of mussels in a delicious white wine sauce, yum! This was dinner at an Italian restaurant (however practically EVERYWHERE had mussels) just in front of the Cathedral of Our Lady. It was delicious and picturesque.
