Having lived in Italy for several years now, I learned an important lesson: when abroad, try to avoid so called "Italian" restaurants, as they tend to be disappointing. But that particular evening there wasn't much of a choice as most of the places I favor...in the area were closed. Well meaning advice from a hotel clerk pointed me to Le Casse Croute. As I was trying to avoid the pasta and the pizza, I asked whether the shrimp croquettes were freshly made? This was confirmed. So I tried those. Unfortunately, they were served semi-frozen, and the rare shrimp I could discover, was a cheap, rubbery, deep frozen and tasteless Norwegian shrimp, instead of the rich, grey North Sea shrimp you would expect in so called "home made" croquettes in Brussels. And definitely for that price. I then ordered a grilled steak. It was "seignant" as I had asked, but not very "grilled" on the outside. It had a greyish color. Worse, the fries served with it, were clearly frozen, industrial fries and no fresh ones. Last but not least, the choice for the house wine proved wrong as well. This was absolute cheapest rubbish and should never be served in any type of restaurant. So, all in all, I managed to eat something, on a wintery Monday evening, but the quality was poor and I can therefor not recommend this place at all...More
