As other have said, home, it’s not really difficult to make, the most important thing is to pick good/fresh ingredients
none, its chocolat cake over here. its belgium after all
Maybe can someone answer with a cafe, bakery or even a supermarket name? My grandma and mother are dead. My SO has a terrible protein allergy, so I can’t make cheese cake at home. Thanks.

My dad sometimes bought them at bakeries somewhere in de Limburg.
Off the top of my head: Ma’s bakery in Ghent.
They do other more american inspired desserts very well, which should be a good fit since you’re looking for cheesecake already.
I really like the cheesecake from Aldi.
I prefer the raw/no-bake cheesecakes over baked ones, and the one from Aldi is pretty good.
I love cheesecake but the ‘Dutch’ cheesecake is a terrible version of it. Any recommendations for NY style cheesecakes?
Khobz in Brussels
Breda (Antwerpen-Noord dus).
Tartes de Francoise in Ghent, crazy good

Unfortunately after my orgasmic cheese cake experience in San Sebastian I’m afraid to try it here.
Pain d’antan in Bascule
Exotica in Liedekerke
The one from Exki with the speculoos crust is great.
There is a cheese shop next to Chouke in the center of Brussels that sometimes makes cheesecake and it’s the huge denser delicious cheesecake I ever ate 🤤
Les tartes de Françoise or Lloyd’s café in Brussels
So far, the best one’s I’ve had were from Julie’s house (Ghent) and Tartes des Françoise
A suburb of Kortrijk called Bissegem. Bakkerij Tarcis. Doesn’t always have it but when he does i take it home with me. Very random place to have a very awesome cheescake…
While I lived in Leuven, I liked the one from Zuut.
Cools in Hasselt
I had the best one at a specialty café named Koul in Brussels. Or Kosto
Easy to bake, but make sure to make it a day before you want to eat it because it has to set in the fridge overnight. And consider using speculoos for the base for a delicious Belgian twist!
