With the chef on tour

Our chef takes you on a tour along the tastiest spots in the city. During this culinary tour, you visit a number of locations related to the rich gastronmic culture of Flanders. Our chef introduces you to local produce and delicatessen on markets and specialty shops. Optionally, we buy top-ingredients and transform them to a mouthwatering lunch or dinner in a cookery workshop following the tour. This programme can be booked in the morning as well as in the afternoon.

CSR - Cooking for Poverello

Corporate Social Responsibility is rapidly becoming one of the crucial pillars of the corporate world and of the incentive sector in particular. In Bruges, we are playing a pioneering role by involving the environment in which we live in our activities and events. Together with you, we'd like to work out how we can translate this during your stay in Bruges. One concrete example is 'On tour with the chef for Poverello': one of our chefs takes you on a tour around Bruges to buy food on a couple of special locations. Afterwards, we cook lunch for Poverello, a shelter for the poor.

Hobby chefs

A unique way to enjoy the hospitality of Bruges.

During this tour (on foot or by bike) you are welcomed in the houses of three advanced amateur chefs. The combination of the friendly athmosphere of a family home and home made dishes guarantee your guests an unforgettable experience and offers the opportunity to get in touch with local people. Let our amateur chefs treat you to a memorable evening.

Sushi

Fed up with way too expensive sushi or the socalled sushi they sell in the supermarket? With the freshest ingredients, some patience, your creativity and the technique we teach you in this workshop, you make your own super-fresh sushi in no time.

Avant garde cooking

Our chefs introduce you to the weirdest kitchen utensils and the most modern ingredients in a well-equipped kitchen in the very heart of Bruges.

The menu mentions, amongst others, spaghetti of parmesan cheese, mint caviar, espuma of tiramisu...

This is Belgian

A cookery workshop with the best local produce Belgium has on offer. Top ingredients from the sea and the land in harmony with the best Belgian beers and with fine chocolate creations afterwards. A workshop for real foodies!

BBQ Festival

Sun, music, a leasurely atmosphere and fine food and drinks: these are the ingredients of our BBQ festival. Grilling and enjoying the food together with your party is the central focus of this BBQ Festival. We make sure the beer is served cold and the music is right for the occasion. Our BBQ-master will help you out on all practical matters. You can relax and chat in authentic beach chairs. The formula can be complemented by a cocktailworkshop.

Workshops to your own taste
