Ibis Kitchen - Machelen

Nice place to dine in. One of budget place with good ambience and delicious food. Staff is really good and friendly. Chef is cool. Must try the local Belgique beer Stella. Basically, it’s located inside the IBIS hotel. However, walkable from all nearby hotels. Normal tap water or carafe is not available, so you’ve to buy bottled water. The water good even for the baby.

The cheeseburger was very good, real Angus meat and the fries were done in proper Belgian way (soft on the inside, crunchy on the outside). And for having a burguer with fries I can add that the side salad was very tasty too. Beer selection is bottled or draft Belgian beers. I went with the Leffe blond, a classic but you could also order the Trippel Karmeliet. Service, well service is not the best. I arrived and they were very busy and in the border of being rude. Just be calm, relax, take a seat and they will provide proper service.

Food is good but service is very inefficient. It takes forever at every stage: be seated, order, get your meal, get second dish/dessert, pay...

Rooms are perfectly clean, only too hot, to vent and very rude air conditioning. Parker for $12 can be cheaper. I give it a skinny 6, just enough because the price isn't high.

A small Restuarant near by ibis hotel. I had a mushroom pizza here. Quantity and quality was good. Good experience. A recommendable Restaurant who need a quick bite near airport. Pizza served as hot and delicious. Totally impressive deal.
