Introduction
Welcome to my final trip of the year. This sees BMW Performance Club members receive an exclusive tour of the dealership, their stock and their workshop. Naturally, coming from the UK, my journey was a little longer than others.
Day 1
As usual, it started with an early Eurotunnel journey. No convoy on this time, so after a quick breakfast we were boarding without delay.
After 35 mins you're in France and our first stop was the best beer shop in Benelux, De Hopduvel, which can be found just a little away from Gent town centre.
This place is massive and has a huge choice of beers. (click picture to play video)
A few beers purchased.
Next up, food n beer in Gent town centre and our go to place is Bier Central. A bar with 300+ beers available to choose from.
And to help you choose beer, they leave a nice catalogue. (click picture to play video)
I opted for a nice cherry beer.
A short walk from there to the important chocolate and cheese shops.
Probably the best cheese shop i've ever been to.
Didn't have masses of time as we still had to get to our hotel in Amsterdam. However, traffic was heavy.
Once at our hotel, we found a lovely Indian restaurant nearby with some beer i've never had before.
And of course, a classic.
As food it was an early night after leaving the house at 4.30am
