If you get off at the South Station (Gare du Midi / Zuidstation), you can walk along Avenue de Stalingrad towards Grand' Place and the old part of the city). On Sunday the 26th, I will be happy to meet you at the airport or at your hotel and go for a beer. I know a great bar in Brussels which is a veritable temple of the brew, and as you may know, Belgian beer is the best in the world. If interested, contact me privately on nathan.wajsman@euronet.be.
