A hidden gem is delighting fans of Asian cuisine in Ixelles! Discover A-Mui, a restaurant specializing in takeout. It offers Taiwanese bento boxes that are particularly well-filled… Bruxelles Secrète shows you everything!
Generous, compartmentalized boxes
The menu features bento sets, available in Classic or Deluxe versions. The Deluxe option offers a complete meal in a compartmentalized box. It includes a serving of rice topped with braised meat, accompanied by an assortment of side dishes. The platter includes edamame beans, sautéed vegetables, seaweed salad, half a hard-boiled egg, and a slice of pickled yellow radish. A small mochi completes the dish.
The concept is quite convenient: everything is gathered in a single box, with enough small side dishes to vary the flavors as you eat. With its rice, braised meat, vegetables, and various side dishes, the bento box offers a full meal rather than just a simple snack to go. It’s a particularly appealing option when you’re looking for a change from the traditional sandwich or salad at lunchtime… or when you’re simply looking for something hearty to take home.
Fried squid and prices
Several protein options are available to accompany the base of the meal, including a version with fried spiringue. Prices range from 15 euros for a classic-sized bento to 18.50 euros for the most substantial Deluxe option.
And if you appreciate those little touches that round out a meal, the mochi included in the Deluxe set provides just the right sweet finishing touch. It’s the perfect way to cap off this generously filled box without having to look elsewhere for dessert!
Located at 26 rue de l’Arbre Bénit, this Taiwanese eatery welcomes customers Tuesday through Friday, only in the late afternoon between 5:30 p.m. and 8:00 p.m., for takeout of these complete meals. It’s a spot to keep in mind for those evenings when you want to eat something hearty without spending hours in the kitchen.
