Description: At last, a book that reveals Europe's best-kept culinary secret: Belgium. From three-star restaurants -- of which the country has more per capita than France -- to the legions of a devoted, opinionated, accomplished home cooks, Belgium and the Belgian people are passionate about good food. Starting with a humble mussel, fried potato, simple chicken, or piece of chocolate, Belgians find a way -- and always a surprisingly easy way -- to make magic. As Belgians explain it, since one has to eat three times a day, why not make a feast of every meal?
