Food in Belgium

Traditional cuisine in Belgium relies heavily in local food. If you care to browse through a local recipe book, you will notice plenty of fish recipes in West Flanders, pork and salmon in Ardennes cookbooks, or eels in Antwerp. Modern cooking is of a finer level and much more stylish, very close to French cuisine, but based in high quality local ingredients.
