The logo is as flashy as sisters Vanessa and Zoë Hutchinson’s smiles, brightening up the drab, grey building belonging to Uccle’s local council, just opposite. And it’s the ideal spot for an energizing breakfast or a working lunch that makes for a change from the staff dining hall. On the line-up? Sandwiches made on bread from Fine bakery in Vanderkindere, with fillings that rotate weekly (yummy tuna mayo with pickled red onions and watercress, or Italian-style steak tartare with arugula) and a veggie option always on offer (grilled veg with hummus); croque monsieurs on Wednesday and Friday; salads (pulled pork, pear, goat cheese, dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds); and crowd-pleasing desserts (cookies, lemon poppyseed loaf, brownies). // Alma Caroni

FEELING THIRSTY? Iced tea or homemade lemonade (€4) and a few natural wines – a Loire white from Clos du Tue-Bœuf or a red Fronton La Folle Noire d’Ambat at €5.50 a glass.

PRICE: Sandwiches €6.50, salads €13 to €14.50, sweets €3.50 to €4.50, breakfast €8 and lunch menus €11.
