Expatica reader Andy Carling was amazed at the acrobatic ballet the food vendor performed as he juggled bread, meat and sauces to provide food quickly for party-goers.
Bring on the meat
At a weekend long party held in celebration of the re-opening of Place Flagey, Expatica reader Andy Carling was amazed at the acrobatic ballet the food vendor performed as he juggled bread, meat and sauces to provide food as quickly as he could to a crowd of hungry customers.
Place Flagey, one of Brussels' largest squares, has been undergoing redevelopment for several years much to the annoyance of the residents.
The festival ended with a traditional Belgian display - an enormous downpour.
