In Bruges



So, for SJ's birthday, I booked the Eurostar to Bruges for a couple of nights. This was somewhere we'd both wanted to go since seeing the film - In Bruges. The trip itself was really simple, train to St Pancras, change on to Eurostar, then change at Brussels to a local train to Bruges and that was it!


Bruges is a beautiful city...just like being in a fairytale...we stayed in the Hotel de Tuilerieen and what a hotel! Its rated as one of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World and was the place Colin Farrell et al stayed in when they were filming In Bruges!


The first night we ate at the No. 1 rated restaurant in Bruges - Rock Fort...absolutely fantastic...second night was Pieter Pourbus, again a fantastic meal and the second highest rated restaurant in Bruges. We ate Turbot for the first time and it was amazing...
