1. It is widely varied: it is mostly made up of different regional dishes with influences from the neighboring cuisines: French, German, and Dutch (Netherlands). There’s even this saying that Belgian food is “served in the quantity of German cuisine (which is a lot!) but with the quality of French food”.
2. It’s not just about the Belgian fries, waffles, and chocolates: though they are undoubtedly and sinfully delicious, there’s more to the country’s national cuisine than these famous snacks!

TRIVIA: The well-known speculoos spreads (creamy, granular, or crunchy) that are popular today were actually started in Belgium and it was in 2008 that it gained worldwide fame when some contestants in a Belgian TV show made them.
