Etterbeek — A Neighbourhood at the Heart of Brussels
Etterbeek is a multicultural and vibrant neighbourhood, the gateway to the European Quarter. Wooly set up shop here to serve both the local residents and the workers from the nearby EU institutions. Since we opened, the pastel de nata has become a morning staple around the Cinquantenaire.
The Wooly Craft
At Wooly Etterbeek, every pastel de nata is prepared according to the traditional recipe brought from Portugal: hand-worked puff pastry, custard cream flavoured with cinnamon and lemon, baked at high temperature to achieve that signature contrast between crispy and creamy. The same artisanal expertise is found in all four of our Brussels shops, from Waterloo to Uccle via Woluwe-Saint-Pierre.
