Antwerp, Belgium: when eating out becomes a fashion statement

There is no escaping it: we all have to eat somehow.

However, I did notice while travelling extensively abroad that different cultures have widely varying approaches to food. Some nations consider having lunch as a high-speed, super-efficient activity to avoid wasting time at all cost. Some cultures mix eating-out and work in a most enjoyable way. I feel very fortunate to live in such a culture.

Below: my pics showing Antwerp eating (and drinking) out on sidewalk restaurants tables, at funfairs, well, wherever they can find something to their taste, and in general enjoying every bite
