    Sorry, after watching this episode, I really felt that Belgian burgers and fries are a hundred times better than McDonald's!
    Those clay pots of mustard sauce are so beautiful, like works of art! It would be fun to pair those fruit gummies with Belgian beer!
    The buildings in Belgium are really strong and beautiful. Thanks for their efforts in preserving historical relics and buildings!
    If the church is the place where God appears most often, then he must be looking for Belgian vodka! Thank you so much for sharing! 👍🥰🙏

    As someone from gent im just saying, if you're ever in gent and want the "real local experience", dont visit frites atelier, its an overpriced, overhyped and overrated shop, if you want real fries visit a real "frituur" (fry shop), not a cashgrab place.

    • @maze2007

      I'm glad this place was not open when I stopped there based on this video, however I followed their White Lion recommendation and food wad surprisingly good for a touristy area restaurant.

    It’s so funny to see your own country ( Belgium ) through the lens of an American… but David, really got most of the facts straight here during this belgian tour. Ok somethings got a bit lost in translation but really good job! Especially compared with other Americans making this content here in Belgium

    Absolutely loving this series on Belgium! Your style and the engaging conversations are so refreshing. But, pindasaus on fries? Oh, come on now, that's bordering on treachery for us Belgians! 😜 Besides our iconic waffles (which we rarely indulge in), chocolates, and fries, we're also big on sandwiches. Definitely give the 'martino' a shot next time - a popular sandwich with raw minced beef.
