Full Description

‘Burgundian’ Belgium has a rich gastronomical heritage and is therefore without a doubt a hospitable and lively centre of Europe. Diplomats and their spouses have the privilege of meeting people with all kinds of different interests and at the same time they convey Belgium’s hospitality and culinary quality to other countries. For this book, the authors brought together several talented Belgians who are, each in their own way, ambassadors of Belgium. In .be Our Guest, the authors first guide us through the world of etiquette. Next, thirteen top chefs, among them Gert De Mangeleer, Bart De Poorter and Yves Mattagne, share their culinary passion and offer 55 delicious dishes, and Belgium’s national specialities (beer, French fries, chocolate, cheese, diamonds and even wine) are discussed thoroughly.
