Kosher restaurants in Antwerp

Belgium's kosher capital and one of Europe's great Chareidi centres: a walkable Jewish quarter by Central Station with about a dozen certified restaurants and takeaways, kosher bakeries, butchers and supermarkets, dozens of shuls and shtiblach, several mikvaos and a weekly-checked eruv. Chabad does not host Shabbos meals here, so plan Shabbos food from the takeaways.
