Tv-Chef Wim Ballieu wants to start a chain of meatballshop. He started a pop-up store in Gent at the Sint-Jacobsnieuwstraat in April. The balls – made from the meat from the butcher shop of his father – are filled with creative fillings such as chervil and pancetta, foie gras and even crab. You can eat in the shop and take-out the balls, they are served with ‘stoemp’ (mashed potatoes) or a salad. The balls are very popular; the pop-up setting is changed to a permanent settlement. Furthermore, a branch in Bruges will be opened and a pop-up version will open in Antwerp.
