Andrew Vassallo: Ghent's nicest train station, if you've got the chance you should plant your butt on one of the benches on the square in front of the station and enjoy the view ;)

Visit Gent: Organic bakery serving large breakfasts, fun brunches or a quick business meet & eat. Its speciality is the ‘tartine bœuf basilic’, an open sandwich with raw beef and basil served on a porcelain plate

Funky R: Ask for a vedett beer and sit down to look at the wall with pictures from charlatan performances.
