[👍🏿] Best burger in town might be a controversial topic for many. After all, how many of your carnivorous friends claim different burger joints as their sinful go to places?

Rest assured, there's nothing controversial about BrewDog Brussels's burger offering. The bar is a mecca for craft beer lovers, but all that hipster fanfare was left in the background as I went for the double spiciness of their Chipotle Chorizo. It consists of the wonderfully soft buttermilk brioche bun, 170 g of juicy beef brisket patty, padron peppers, chorizo and chipotle mayo sauce. Naturally, for an or****ic experience, I added another beef brisket patty and I recommend you do the same.

In this combination, the burger will set you back €19, hand-cut fries included, but anyway it's an experience not to be repeated too soon or to often. Good things ought to be spaced out.

[👍🏿] My Tannour is a relative newcomer on the Brussels food scene, opened only last year.

Georges and his tattooed team of cooks upturned the meaning of 'fast food'. What is served to you in just a couple of minutes, is actually cooked for 10h-16h, and can be rated a healthy meal.

Thick three storied iron oven is fired up with wood on second level, while the bottom one is used to slow burn the wood and create the smoking effect. At the top, lamb, beef and chicken are slow cooked throughout the night.

On the other side is a clay oven tucked in sand base, where wholemeal breads are baked within seconds on an open flame.

Initially an unknown Syrian food outlet, My Tannour quickly rose to the top of Brussels fast food scene, rightly deserving my warm recommendation.

Go there after a couple of beers, and order a tannour plate for €6,5 with grilled veggies or halloumi on the side. But be prepared to queue. It is no longer a "hidden" gem.

If you find yourself this summer on a Croatian island of Hvar, don't miss "Giaxa", the traditional "konoba" restaurant, famous for it's "gregada".

Gregada is a fish stew cooked in white wine, olive oil, onions and Mediterranean herbs.

Giaxa has a stunning setting in the epicenter of the Hvar Old Town, but you have to make a reservation in advance to secure a table in this popular konoba.

Prices are tailored to British tourists' wallets, but portions are generous. Gaixa and Hvar definitely deserve a stop on your Dalmatian island hopping vacation. - Kruno
