📌 THE LISTINGS

🗺️ Activity of the Week

Smaakmeesters

This weekend, Antwerp is turning into one giant open-air restaurant. Nearly 100 restaurants, bars and specialty shops are serving up their best bites, from fine dining to ice cream, cocktails to coffee.

You can follow themed food walks, score free tastings and discounts at Het Steen, or wander into hidden gems on a guided tour through Antwerp North.

⚠️ From our own experience: be quick. Those free tastings? Gone before you can say “smakelijk.”

🏡House of the Week

Van Schoonbekestraat 56, 2018

In the lively Harmoniewijk, a classic townhouse is waiting for its next chapter. Think high ceilings, tall windows, a grand entrance hall, five full floors (yes, including basement and attic), and a proper city garden. The catch? It’s completely to renovate. Which means either you’ve got the budget to let the pros handle it, or you’re almighty enough (read: you, your parents, or both) to tackle it yourself.

Bidding starts at €570,000 and closes on Thursday, October 2nd, at 11am.

🍷Your Weekly Date Spot

Vinkenstraat 1, 2018

Finch

Finch is all about contemporary food with an Asian twist. It’s the kind of place where you can start light, go adventurous, and still end up sharing bites across the table (even if you swore you wouldn’t).
