This elegant establishment is housed in a 17th-century building overlooking the Grand Place. At one point La Maison du Cygne was a popular cafe where in 1881 the Belgian Socialist Party was founded. Now it consists of one of the finest restaurants and bars in Brussels, where elegance, class and style are standard. There are five different rooms—the most coveted seats overlooking Grand Place. The cuisine is classic French, and the wine cellar has a permanent stock of no less than 70,000 bottles.
Levada a frente pelo produtor cinematográfico Daniel van Avermaet, Au Stekerlapatte é muito popular graças à sua clientela jovem, sua cozinha despretensiosa e por seus preços razoáveis.

A lista de cervejas é impressionante, e pode pedir o vinho pelo centímetro. Sempre que há um festival de cinema em Bruxelas, este é o lugar para ver estrelas. A ementa é em francês e flamengo e inclui pratos tradicionais da cidade.

Information about this party can be found on the official website.
