After a long evening of wine drinking, the wife and I decided to brunch it up. There are quite a few brunch places in Brussels, and I haven't been soooo impressed with them as of yet. We decided to give Crème a shot because I had heard they had good coffee, and, well, compared to some of the other places we had wanted to go, it was actually possible to get a table at Crème in short notice.
We ultilized the SkeepIt app, which allows you to claim a table online without have to show up at the restaurant first. We hopped on the bus, joined the queue on SkeepIt, and when we arrived, boom, table in a full house.
It's a cozy little place, people packed in. Unfortunately there's a line that forms from people inquiring about tables from the street to the small bar/counter. There's also a loud sliding door people, despite the sign, often forget to slide closed.
The wife got the Spicy Salmon Avocado Toast with an Early Gray tea, and I got the Beet and Halloumi toast with a flat white. We also ordered a Scone with jam, not pictured.
The coffee was nice, that was for sure. The wife also said the tea was of good quality. I enjoyed my toast as well. The sourdough bread was great, and the eggs had been perfectly poached. The toasts were very nice--no complaints. The scone, however, had been worked a bit much and was pretty dense. I do not recommend them.
All in all, if you oooki8for brunch, haven't made a reservation, and want to eat somewhere with some good typical brunch fare, well then Crème is a solid choice.
