The Tintin-themed eatery, Tintin & The Brussels Club, which has been serving traditional Belgian dishes since its inception, has come up with some new specials, adding fun mocktails and recipes from Belgium.

“The inspiration for the new dishes comes from my annual trips to Belgium. I take pictures and then come back and discuss it with our continental chef so they can create the dishes,” said Barnali Sensarma Ghosh, co-owner, Tintin & The Brussels Club.
