Frommer's Review

Green Card's concept of food as "inexpensive, earthy, and Eurasian" appeals to the hip and trend-conscious clientele of the arts-oriented Belgisches Viertel (Belgian Quarter) of the city, a 15-minute walk north from the cathedral. The deliberately industrial decor may remind you of a construction site in progress, and the clientele's body piercings and funky hair may strike you as a bit artsy/eccentric, but the fusion cuisine is always appealing. Menu items change seasonally, but often include fried shrimp with mango-flavored cream sauce served with braised potatoes and salad, elaborate salads, roasted free-range chicken with coconut-flavored butter sauce, wontons in curry-flavored arugula sauce, scallops in banana-vanilla butter, and green-tea spätzle with a Camembert-flavored gratin and shiitake mushrooms.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
