Ghent on a Fork: From Waterzooi to Cuberdon

A 14-stop walking food tour of Ghent — waterzooi on Sint-Baafsplein where Charles V ate it, pralines from a family workshop, Belgian waffles from an 1839 firm that won the 1958 World Fair, a medieval meat hall, mustard stone-ground since 1790, a 900-year-old Sint-Hubertus bun, the smallest café in the city named after the gallows, 200 jenevers, cuberdons since 1904, hop-less medieval gruut beer, and a boot-glass of beer you can only drink if you leave your shoe as deposit.
