Description: The Brussels Restaurant Menu Arlington Texas Fair Organ 1984 Kiekefretter A large 4 page laminated menu from The Brussels Restaurant in Arlington Texas. The Home of an original Fair Organ. Circa 1984. Measures about 8 1/2" x 14 3/4" when closed. With history of Chicken and French Fires, The Organ and KiekefretterDue to the size limitations of my scanner, the entire menu may not show in some of the scans. From D Magazine in 1984The Brussels. (Belgian) We don’t know of a less pretentious place in the Metroplex offering authentically European food than this Arlington restaurant, and, as for as we know, it’s the only one that claims to offer Belgian cuisine. We certainly don’t know any place where you can get a meat course and three vegetables for as little as $4.25-that’s all the broiled chicken will set you back, and even the waterzooi (poached chicken in a creamy, egg-enriched sauce with vegetables) is less than $6. The beef and fish entrees are higher but are still a good bargain. We enjoyed the sole in Normande sauce, the garlicky sau-téed shrimp and the steak with mushroom sauce (which was cooked precisely to order). All the main courses come with appropriate vegetables. We liked the typically Belgian fries the best and the scalloped mounds of mashed potatoes the least (too dry and too highly flavored with nutmeg). Salads are Americanized, including the overpriced one that has a bit of Belgian endive thrown in. But the desserts are fine: crepes, Belgian waffles with whipped cream and fresh strawberries, and La Dame Blanche-a sundae with a rich, bittersweet sauce made of real Belgian chocolate. The decor at the Brussels is as unpretentious as the plastic-coated menu. The table linens are in the Belgian colors of red, black and yellow, and there’s a huge European circus organ that looks darling but can be deafening if cranked up. The noise, in fact, is one of the primary drawbacks here. The piped-in music and the manner of the serving staff makes you think you’ve wandered into a Bennigan’s by mistake. We wish this would be corrected, because the food here is good, if never extraordinary, and there is a nice, short selection of wines and unusual Belgian beers. Since even children are made to feel welcome (there are child’s plates and American dishes), the Brussels is a useful new place in the environs of Arlington Stadium and Six Flags. in very fine condition Our Policies: For Multiple Purchases A single payment for all items would be appreciated.
