At peak times, this enormously popular brasserie in an old warehouse off the Korenmarkt crackles with energy. A giant Greek statue makes an incongruous counterpoint to the marble-top tables, parquet floors, and long oak bar, but there's no denying its craft. Locals rave about the seafood and the oyster bar, or you can choose the "market menu," based on what the chef picked up fresh that morning.
