Chez Franz
Brussels, Belgium
The read// why locals go
Chez Franz sits on the Chaussée de Wavre near Matongé, a Brussels neighbourhood restaurant with no website, no press and a menu that changes with the market. The list is short and handwritten, which is less a style choice than a consequence of buying daily rather than planning weekly. What arrives is Belgian neighbourhood cooking at about 19 euros a main, the food of a commune where Congolese groceries, Portuguese cafés and old Brussels bistros share a pavement. The dining room fills with people who work nearby and were coming long before anyone thought to write about it. If you want to know what Ixelles eats on an ordinary Tuesday, this is the answer.
