Hotel du singe d'or
My husband and I stumbled across this place in the centre of Bruges. We set out to dine in a recommended restaurant that was a few doors down from the Hotel du Singe d'or, but that restaurant was dead and this one was full of people even though the food festival was buzzing across the road, every table was full and continuously refilled when each patron left. As it transpires the locals flock here on a Monday for the mussels & frites for €10 special. The staff were friendly and we were greeted and seated immediately. When our drinks arrived they were served with nibbles- coated peanuts (bottom left)
Advertised as a local favourite were cheese croquettes (pictured above right) which are a delicious warm gruyere and potato mixture coated in breadcrumbs and served with a fresh green salad. 
On the left is the Monday night special- mussels natural with celery and onion broth served with frites and lemon mayo, which my husband thoroughly enjoyed. On the right is a salad singe d'or a filling house salad full of vegetables and crispy bacon. The meal was so filling we didn't have room for dessert!
