Bruxx, Belgian brasserie in Prague, Czech Republic
Bruxx is a Belgian brasserie in central Prague, with a menu focused on Belgian cooking. The dishes on offer include steak tartare with house-cut fries, mussels prepared in several ways, and poached eggs made with seasonal produce.
Bruxx was among the first restaurants in Prague to focus entirely on Belgian food, at a time when Western European cooking was still rarely found in the city. It opened as Prague's dining scene was beginning to take in international influences.
Bruxx pours Belgian draft beers, including Trappist ales and lambics, that are rarely found on tap elsewhere in Prague. Sitting at the bar gives a good view of the taps and a chance to ask for a recommendation.
The restaurant is in central Prague and easy to reach on foot from many parts of the old town. For groups or special occasions, booking ahead is a good idea to secure a table.
The fish and chips here uses cod in panko breadcrumbs and comes with a house-made gribiche sauce, which sets it apart from most versions of this dish. Gribiche is a French-Belgian sauce made from hard-boiled eggs and herbs, and it is rarely found on menus in Prague.
