Boccone — Restaurant in Leuven

Tried the carbonara for 3.5 Euros (you can get bigger size for 6.5 euros?). The pasta was cooked perfectly but the way they make the carbonara is far from traditional. They serve it in a cup. First they put the pasta then top it with a PREMADE sauce. That's why the bottom part of the cup is bland with no sauce because you just cannot mix that thing.

This was the first place I went to after I landed in Belgium in 2019. Best and cheapest spot to beat your hunger. The pasta here is very simple and delicious. You can also mix two sauces together.

Overall great place and I have been here many times and cant stop going...

Medium Carbonara with Parmesan is my absolute favourite ❤️ the wait time is less than 5 minutes and there is a great selection of drinks including alcoholic beverages. The biggest surprise is that it...
