"This is such a nice place, too bad it's in Belgium"


Belgo is what one calls a chain. I visited the one in Covent Garden. They made an effort with design. There is a sort of overall bunker feeling as you enter the dimly lit reception and then proceed down the stairs into the spacious dining area.
Before the film "In Bruges" came out Belgium was famous for three things - Antwerp diamonds, flavoured beer and mussels. Diamonds aside Blego offers both of the other two commodities. We had mussels with chips and some cherry Kriek. What you see is what you get in Belgo. Makes a good alternative for a casual lunch or dinner.
