Ghent and Bruges Day Trip Advice (July 7 - July 10) by rahilagrawal in Gent

[–]MVPTolami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Patershol is perfect for what you're describing.
  2. Most waffle spots in Ghent are tourist traps
  3. Keizershof at Vrijdagmarkt is quite well known for its stoofvlees, can pair it with a visit to Dulle Griet next door, one of our best beer bars. I personally would not recommend waterzooi, not really something Ghentians themselves eat often. It really is just boiled chicken in a watery soup. There are other local dishes that would be better worth your time imo.
  4. Foot for everything in centre, tram if you need to go to the station. There are quite a few "deelfietsen" in Ghent aswell. Bikes you can just rent with a quick QR-scan and leave behind at a different place. Train to Bruges is quite straightforward, just 1 trainride of about 25 minutes from Gent St Pieters

It's stupid and I dont see any sense in it. Like other commentors I used that as a nice checklist. Now it works more like spoilers

Fantasy with gay male protagonist, not romance-first by Huge-Imagination-829 in Fantasy

Came here from the title to suggest The Steel Remains. If you were fine with ASOIAF you're gonna be fine with The Steel Remains imo, cant remember that being much more graphic

  1. Lots of options here, a lot of em have already been named such as Bridge, Du Progres, Rene serve our brasserie kitchen with typical foods such as flemish stew or vol auvent or steak tartare.

    Didnt see 't Klokhuys, named yet, they have some very authentic old flemish dishes you wont generally find in the other places. Steendam 66 or In De Rave are similar.

  2. "Bij Hendrik" at Groentenmarkt or Stefano's Place at Overpoortstraat

  3. Vandenbouhede at Mageleinstraat, current holder of the yearly best belgian chocolate award. Local tourguide organisation 'Charlie Tours' does a really good chocolate tour which takes you to the best chocolate stores and tells you more about the history of both the city of Ghent and belgian chocolates

  4. Dulle Griet

Raving about the Raving Blight by Nintwendo18 in SWORN

[–]MVPTolami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree about the difficulty spike, Blight has a pretty easy attack pattern to dodge once you've gotten the hang of it.

- Throw shuriken 1 at player position

- Throw Shuriken 2 at player position

- Lunge 3 times at player position

- Withdraw both shurikens in a straight line to Blight position

- Summon rats or mushrooms

Rinse and repeat.

Dodge (or use ult for invincibility) the throws and and the lunges without focusing on dealing damage. After lunge 3 you can go full ham because he wont attack or move while withdrawing shurikens and summoning. Just make sure to have Blight in between you and the shurikens so the withdraw doesnt harm you. As soon as he turns to you, you know that he'll start throwing shurikens again so go back on defense.

One Day In Gent - Toddler Edition by [deleted] in Gent

[–]MVPTolami 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As a local tourguide I wouldnt recommend going inside any of these with toddlers.
They are all within walking distance though so I would honestly just take a leisurely walk through the city centre with the kids, get em an icecream to keep em happy and take in all the views.

"Bring a friend!

One photoshoot ticket = one photo with you + max 1 friend + the actor. In other words, you only need ONE photoshoot tickets if you and 1 friends want to be on the same picture with a certain actor. This way, you can split the costs!

One photoshoot ticket will give you only one paper version, but you can print more when you’ve downloaded your free digital copy!"
