Mmmmm! The delights of Belgium are on the tip of your tongue. While in Belgium, you must try both waffles (gaufres) and chocolates.
Be aware, however, from where you buy your waffles! A tour guide in Bruges warned us that many stands buy frozen waffles and warm them up for tourists. Check the place out before you buy them. My two best waffles were homemade. Our tour stopped for lunch where the waffles were made fresh and warm. They only had a few waffle irons, so they weren't served to the whole tour group at once! I had another delicious waffle in Ghent - a light apple filling on the inside and topped with whipped cream.
As for chocolates, the two popular 'gourmet' chains are Godiva and Leonidas . If you are on a budget, you may be able to find chocolate elsewhere besides these specialty stores. Whatever your preference, at least a piece of chocolate is worth the taste!
