A l’Imaige Nostre-Dame

by Vincent

Like most well kept secrets A l’Imaige Nostre-Dame is not easy to find and one would need to be really lucky to simply stumble into it. Located at the end of a long and narrow alleyway it is one of the oldest cafés of Brussels. Having a unique and authentic feeling to it, this pub has had the chance to retain its original decor and boats a very friendly atmosphere with its share of regulars, merrymaking students and the occasional tourist.

University students often come to this café and the bartender has been made their honorary Godfather with all the official gear.

Hi, I am writing from Dorling Kindersley, a London based publishing house. We are publishers of highly-illustrated travel guides of which we have published in excess of 150 so far. They are translated into all major languages and distributed throughout the world. Our guides are totally independent and there is no cost involved for the venues that are listed in it. You can view our travel guides at the URL mentioned above. We really like the photographs in your collection and were hoping to use some of them in our book. Needless to say, your inclusion in our Travel Guide, will be of mutual interest, and enhanced by the high-quality photographs, will also serve as a useful reference for people who are planning a vacation to Belgium.Please let us know your thoughts on the same.

Due to very tight publishing schedule, it will be great if you could please revert back to us at the soonest possible.

We look forward to hearing back from you soon.Thanks & Regards.

I remember having spent very good time in this bar when my wife was spending a one-year postdoctoral period in Louvain-la-Neuve. Some university friends of her invited us to discover this amaizing place. I really enjoyed the Bourgogne de Flandres I drank and the tartines I ate. Great place!
