"Beer, Chocolate & Friends" Antwerp by hayward68


Antwerp Travel Guide: 3,341 reviews and 6,432 photos

I visited Antwerp Nov 28, 2001 for a meeting with fellow VT'ers B_Caro, Myriam_C and Conny_Bazen. I met up with Conny early in the day and she showed me the sights of the city before heading to the restaurant where Caroline and Myriam would join us. After that it was mostly food and alcohol for the rest of the day ;-)
I'd like to thank the these three great ladies for giving me such wonderful memories of my day in Antwerp. Even if I was tipsy by the end of the day from all the beer I had consumed ;-)
See the meetings page for pics of the meeting.
Here's a pic of one of the highlights of the day ;-)
In honour of my page I ate Belgian chocolates, bought during this trip, while putting it together ;-)

    Antwerp is such a cool place. I discovered some rare beers there. And the Lange Wapper statue is funny!

    You have an enjoyable / comprehensive section on Antwerpen that is fun to read, too. Great job.

    Beer food and chocolate look wonderful. I'll hope to visit here. Adding in VTers would make it even better! -- Greg

    Good food, good beer and good fellowship with VTers--sounds like a winning combination.

    Wow! I didn't know we had special ice cream. Great page with good tips. I think Antwerp is the most underrated city in Europe.
