331 Lunch With Matteo

(Jayden)

Matteo's text is straight to the point: Lunch. Best restaurant in Brussels. Be there at 1.

There's a location pinned. I glance at my Rolex.

I message back: Don't think I'm taking lunch break

His answer is quick: Nonsense. You're the boss, no?

Well, damn it. He's right. I am.

When I step out of the town car, I'm greeted by cobblestones underfoot and an old-world elegance that hits different from the sleek, modern vibes back home

The restaurant is a hidden gem tucked away from the bustling streets, its charm oozing out from ivy-covered walls and grand arches.

He's already seated by the window, casually leaning back, a glass of red wine in one hand, his grin radiating confidence.

"There he is!" Matteo calls out, raising his glass as if we've known each other for years. "Jayden! Amico mio, you made it! Hungry?"

"I could eat," I say, sitting down across from him.

Matteo laughs. "Perfetto. We're going local today. Belgian cuisine at its finest. You'll leave here in love with stoofvlees-trust me. A Belgian stew. Delicioso."

The waiter arrives, and Matteo wastes no time. "Bonjour! Deux fois stoofvlees et une bouteille de votre meilleur vin rouge!" He doesn't even glance at the menu.

He turns back to me, his boyish grin still in place. "So, Jayden, what do you think of Brussels so far?"

"Hugo, I think Gus is like his father, you know? They have a history." He shrugs. "Astrid, well," He rolls his eyes dramatically, letting out a low chuckle. "She's wound tighter than a Swiss watch."
