't Kelderke

Grande Place , Bruxelles

« Your rooms will be ready only at 2 pm »
Damn, it’s raining (we’ll get used to that). The first approaches to Bruxelles by taking shelter into an ancient basement.
Probably the only tavern not too banally only suitable for group tourists all around the famous “Grande Place”.
A Flemish would be able to explain me what “t’ Kelderke” means. An amusing little restaurant, an inn…
The first Waterzoiď (a kind of fish soup, but it can be also chicken) and the first gueuze (a special beer) for Sergey.
“It’s really beautiful this square – he said- but it’s not that big at all, why did they call it “grande”?
All is relative; Sergey has the Siberian parameters as point of references and the immense soviet architecture.
“ I really love this small “Grande Place”, let’s have another beer”

't Kelderke
The apostrophe before the t = letters missing
The missing letters are "he"
The full word is "Het" = the
Kelder = cellar
-ke is a diminiutive ending
't Kelderke = The Little Cellar

Hello Marisa,
't Kelderke means "little basement" (petite cave), et la vrai "Waterzooi", which is a real specialty, must be with chicken. Hope you enjoyed your stay here, even though our weather wasn't really kind to you.
