Beer-Braised Beef Served with Smoked Gouda Mashed Potatoes – $6.25
Previously, the beer-braised beef was found on a waffle as well. A few years ago they decided it looked more attractive on mashed potatoes, and we agree. It’s also a lot easier to eat! The beef is ultra tender and falls apart with a fork, and there’s plenty of gravy and mashed potatoes to help soak each other up. It’s an absolutely fantastic dish, albeit not looking the most photogenic. We recommend checking it out. Actually, we’re going to recommend everything here at Belgium.

Belgian Waffle with Warm Chocolate Ganache – $5.50
The chefs here are making waffles fresh to order making the price tag immediately worth it. There’s two varieties, here we have the chocolate ganache. The chocolate is ultra-rich and turns the waffle and whipped cream into a sweet wonderland.

Belgian Waffle with Berry Compote and Whipped Cream – $5.50
And this one is the berry compote version. There’s a much more prevalent topping on this waffle compared to the drizzle of chocolate. Both are really sweet and tasty, it comes down to personal preference. At the price, you really can’t go wrong with the freshly prepared waffles.

Belgian Chilled Coffee – $5.00
This tastes like chocolate milk blended with a strong coffee. There’s not much more to it beyond that, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s pretty basic, but it’s good, and not a bad option for a pick-me-up in the late afternoon or early evening.

*NEW* Brouwerij Verhaeghe Vichte Duchesse Red, Sweet & Tart Cherry Ale, Vichte (6.8% ABV) – $5.75 for 6 oz., $9.75 for 12 oz.
From Brouwerij Verhaeghe on Untappd: “Duchesse Cherry is a blend of 1 and 2 year-old Duchesse de Bourgogne with local, sour cherries added to the maturing beer. The malt beverage is aged in oak casks, and utilizing whole cherries from the Limburg region of Belgium, as opposed to cherry syrup that is sometimes used in cherry beer production, Duchesse Cherry truly lives up to its name.”
Brouwerij Van Steenberge Gulden Draak Tripel Ale, Ertvelde (10.5% ABV) – $5.75 for 6 oz., $9.75 for 12 oz.
According to Brouwerij Van Steenberge, this beer has an aroma with “malty sweet undertones, dried fruit (figs) and a mild spicy note,” and a taste profile that offers a “full malty attack, caramel. spicy mix of the smell. balanced. Clear presence of alcohol, but nicely carried by a firm body.”
Belgian Chilled Coffee featuring ChocoLat Deluxe Salted Caramel Chocolate Liqueur ($21/bottle) – $12.00
This basically tastes the same as the non-alcoholic version, just with a hint of liquor. Ultimately, the Viking Coffee at the Norway Pavilion is a better boozy coffee option.
