In November last year, we’ve written about food pairing by biscuit manufacturer Jules Destrooper.

We are huge fans of the open minded taste approach from our Belgian neighbors and will definitely try the recipes.

The espresso boys can be combined with the ‘meisjes met smaak’ (girls with taste) to make a combination of coffee with something sweet and delicious. The ‘meisjes met smaak’ are known of the oyster girls, but can also be hired as macaron girl, pata girl, sushi girl, ice cream girl, brullee girl etc.
