October is in full swing, and with it a new lease of life for Brussels after almost two years off. Singerbird has put together a list of the 8 must-see new openings in the capital.
140° @ Wolf
Last weekend, Top Chef contestants Mallory and Adrien opened their new restaurant in the Wolf food court in the center of town. This one, dedicated to Belgian cuisine, offers fries, revisited sandwiches, shrimp croquettes… In short, we love it: it’s good, Belgian and gourmet!

Popotes Comptoir Gourmand
It’s THE new place for brunch near Flagey, with pancakes, chai latte, homemade tarts… Lots of delicacies, but also local products and materials, lovingly chosen partners, and it shows in the service!

Nina Italian Kitchen
This new Italian-flavored eatery is sure to please… Ideally located in the ixelles cemetery, Nina offers a simple, gourmet menu, with fresh produce straight from Italy… After a few Spritzes, customers start dancing on the bar!
