Hello again! We are Extremis. We love ‘stoverij’ – a beef
stew with beer – and French... um, Belgian fries.
We’re promoting a Burgundian yet
responsible lifestyle. Belgium is known
as the land of culinary treats. At
Extremis, we choose quality when it
comes to food, and frankly, we should
all do the same when we buy furniture
as well.
Belgian fries? It is rumoured that ‘French fries’
received their name during World War One. At that
time, English speaking soldiers were introduced
to the fried potatoes in French-speaking Belgium,
but because they thought they were in France,
they labelled them ‘French’.
