5 great ideas for a successful Valentine's Day 2021 in Brussels 

Valentine's day is in a few days and one thing is certain, this year the feeling is very different: no restaurant on site, no evening that will end in bar or cinema outing, pandemic requires. But it is not the health situation that will prevent us from celebrating the feast of love in the magnificent city of Brussels as it should be. Indeed, the Belgian capital has plenty to offer to lovers who wish to spend a unique moment on February 14 to capsize the hearts of their other half.

1 – Have a starred chef’s dinner delivered to your home 

This year, although we will not be able to go to our 4 favorite restaurants in Brussels, why not treat yourself to an exceptional dinner at home? Take away is more fashionable than ever so treat yourself to a meal from a great chef like Laurence and Lionel Rigolet from the restaurant Comme Chez Soi which offers one of the most exquisite Valentine's Day menus between land and sea. The Chalet of the Forest for more adventurous budgets also offers this year a special Valentine's Day menu that will awaken your taste buds.

2 – A romantic walk to rediscover the city 

Brussels is a magnificent city that deserves to be spent in its narrow streets getting lost on a beautiful winter afternoon. The city is also full of parks all more beautiful like these 5 presented here, do not hesitate to have a hot drink with your lover and walk hand in hand to appreciate the charm of Brussels.

3 – A tea party in town to share a romantic waffle 

To continue on this good momentum, after an invigorating ride, what better than a waffle to regain your strength! A waffle in Brussels that we will share with two is certainly a must for a moment of complicity. We all have our preferences: with chocolate, cinnamon, fruit, everything is possible when you are looking for the waffle of your desires. Find here our selection of waffles 2020 to facilitate your choice.

4 – A nice assortment of the best chocolates in Brussels 

Who says Valentine's Day, says chocolate! What better place than Brussels to offer your loved one delicious chocolates. The city is full of small shops offering them, and if you have any doubts, here are our tips for finding the right one for you. A box of chocolates is always a wonderful comforting gift and as Jacques Brel would say, nothing is better than chocolates because flowers are perishable.

5 – Evening beer, fries and a good Belgian movie

Our way of life has changed over the past year but our desire for simple things is still there and precisely Valentine's Day is also an opportunity to have a good time with the person we love without overdoing it. So why not spend the evening watching a good Belgian film like It happened close to you (1992) by Rémy Belvaux with Benoît Poelvoorde for guaranteed chills or even Dikkenek (2006) by Olivier Van Hoofstadt for laughs out loud. Only one thing will be missing: good Belgian beers! If you also want to have them delivered to you, we advise you to test the Brewksel service: find out more here !

With these 5 ideas, you have all the keys to spend a more than perfect Valentine's Day 2021 in Brussels 😉
