Museum of Cocoa and Chocolate

   
You'll find this just off one corner of the Grande Place at 9/11 Rue de la Tête d'Or, a little street just to the right of the Tourist Information Office.  Open Tuesday to Sunday , from 10 a.m. until 4.30 p.m. admission €5, seniors €4 and accompanied children under 12 go free!   As soon as you get inside you're presented with a biscuit dipped in lovely gooey fresh chocolate.  Enjoy learning some new fascinating facts from the displays, then make a beeline for the demonstration area.  Chat to the chocolatier doing the demonstrations, whose family have been in the business for four generations, ask a few intelligent questions, and he'll ply you with samples while he enthusiastically replies.  There are far worse ways to spend a wet afternoon in Brussels!
