When looking for a movie-dinner, this is a good alternative to the Queen St. joints or the pubs on John Street. A fusion between chic and typical pub, The Fat Belgian gives a warming welcome to its patrons. Raspberry duck is slightly fatter and greasier than expected. The combination of raspberry and red wine does not take away the taste of the duck. Dried cranberries and butter creates a harmony in the side risotto. Fat Belgian Moules arrives in sizable and tasty portions that is well worth the money. Dessert menu, however, fails to spark interest. Service is fast and friendly. Has a moderate Belgian beer selection.
