La Buvette
Brussels, Belgium
The read// why locals go
La Buvette is a small Saint-Gilles bistro on Rue de Moscou, the kind of Brussels room where the menu is chalked up and changes before you have finished reading it. The cooking is Belgian and unfussy, built on the classics that survive because families kept making them: beef stewed in beer, chicory and ham under cheese, whatever the week's market suggested. Mains land near 20 euros. A handful of tables sit on the pavement and belong, by long custom, to the regulars. Saint-Gilles has changed a great deal in twenty years, and places like this are the reason the neighbourhood still feels like itself.
