Culinaria Festival Celebrates Belgian Food Heritage

Belgian culinary heritage will be front and center at the 2015 edition of Culinaria Festival, which will take place in Brussels from May 6th-10th.

Just as in previous years, some of Belgium’s best Michelin-starred chefs will leave their restaurant kitchen to delight foodies by cooking under elegant tents set up on the Tour & Taxis site in the Belgian capital.

This year’s theme, “The Belgium Effect”, will celebrate the best of Belgian cuisine and will unite the north and south in a harmonious mix of flavors and specialties. Besides the variety of menus offered by the country’s greatest chefs, the event will also be a chance for local producers, farmers, wine makers and brewers to display their goods and latest product novelties.

Over 30 Michelin-starred chefs will participate in “The Belgium Effect”, including Benoit Dewitte (Restaurant Bernard & Benoit Dewitte), Kobe Desramaults (In De Wulf), Pastry Chef Pierre Marcolini (Maison Pierre Marcolini), Pascal Devalkeneer (Le Chalet de la Forêt), Yves Mattagne (Sea Grill). The three-star French Chef Michel Troisgros will be the guest of honor of the 2015 Culinaria Festival.

S.Pellegrino is the official sponsor of the 2015 Culinaria Festival.
