Lindsey Tramuta (2014) “Identified primarily for his or her small, skinny waffles (gauffres) and goodies, I wandered inside after being seized by the sturdy galettes displayed within the window. The store at all times provides the standard recipe, which options almond cream (frangipane), however I made a beeline for the chestnut cream & pear selection – wealthy however not overly candy; an actual marvel.”

At Meert, the selection of fillings was vanilla, caramel or chicory, an vital ingredient in Lille.”
