Best WLM Reviews
The experience was simply amazing and what makes it more special is the warm hearted enthusiasm and passion of the person preparing the Sandwiches.
Great things take time, there is passion and connection process to what the customer likes in choosing the sandwich. He would ask what you like, suggest the kind of flavors, and in the process get to know you. This takes time and is part of the experience and process to making that sandwich special for you. Therefore, if you inpatient, this might not be the right place for you (but please do be with warm open heart).
He will connect with the person or group ordering (around 10 min talking and preparing) speaking in various languages. He would ask you to grab a fresh fruit out of the fridge, breaking the barriers and for some reason I truly believe that due to his positive view of life and care for his customers, it is reflected within the sandwich.
The place is small with 3 tables but by the time one customer orders a group would finish and all works out in perfect harmony. You get to listen in to conversations of people and where they from or sit and savor the colorful flavor of your sandwich.
I would not be surprised if it at least got in the list of Michelin Bib Gourmand, and hope it gets reviewed for that and get recognized. As it is a hidden gem and definitely value for money.
It is definitely and experience and fulfilling sandwich and highly recommended to visit, for myself I definitely will be a regular whenever I am in Brussels.
Thank you Gary for a wonderful experience, conversation, and of course an amazing sandwich!
Great experience and most delicious and unique sandwiches I have ever had! For us it was definitely worth the wait since it’s part of the experience. The personnel is really nice to talk to and entertaining and you can really feel the passion and love behind their jobs. Really awesome!
These are truly the best Sandwiches you will have in your life! Everything is extremely fresh and flavourful. we waited 1.5 hours but if you love good food you won't mind waiting even longer, it's definitely worth it! We are going back one more time during our short stay. The person who was serving us is an inspiring man with passion for cheese and sandwiches. I really don't understand all the negative comments on here, nobody is forcing anyone to wait in the queue, if you don't want to wait you can always buy a sandwich anywhere else but don't hate on this place and its unique service concept.
Warning: If you can't wait for 20-40mins, come early and avoid peak hour, which is 1200-1430.
Man with great passion about cheese, and customer service.
He will talk to you and treat you like you are the only one in the shop, he will help you find the cheese and flavour for your baguette. Not only that he will talk to you and get to know you, he is also well versed in multiple languages too.
Freshly baked baguette, various cheeses, fruits, nuts, meat and his special honey. If you like sweet or savoury, let him know.
The spicy cheese with the soft cream cheese, fruits and honey was a beautiful combination.
The wait will be long, this is due to his customer service where he educates you about cheese and he tries to identify your taste and offer the right style.
A few customers came back many times and were willing to wait, be mindful it will be 5-10min per customer and since he works alone it may take longer if people order large bulks.
Worth the wait for his beautiful cheese and flavour combos.
The very definition of hospitality and kindness. The hosts were exceedingly welcoming and friendly throughout, from ordering to the end of our meal. We were served a cup of pea soup and even an extra cup of hot chocolate with our order.
Sandwiches were great. Best not to challenge them as they know what is best ????. Loved the flavour combination we had (papaya cow's cheese, pear, grape, blueberry, salami, honey). Sweet and savoury.
Please do manage your expectations. It isn't going to taste premium or anything (bear in mind they're not pricey sandwiches) and the queue can be a wait because there's just the two of them. But if you wait and be nice, they will be your friend in a foreign land.
Amazing experience - was not sure if it was going to be worth the wait after standing in line for 2 hours but would definitely recommend. They were very knowledgeable with the types of cheeses and pairings that they used for the sandwiches and took the time to understand what we were looking for!
Amazing sandwiches with a wide selection of cheeses. The hospitality and customer service was out of this world, especially with how much effort he puts into each sandwich to make it perfect just for you. If you love cheese and sandwiches you need to come here.
It was truly an experience! The fact that they took the time to determine what flavors I like and to combine them into a masterpiece was indescribable.
Even though there is not much space inside, they will make you feel at home and give you freebies while you wait. Highly recommend if you want the best sandwich of your life for cheap!
