Belgian Food Artisans wants to spread the message around the world about Belgium’s rich culinary culture.
Belgium has much to offer in the area of gastronomy, including a rich tradition of varied and delicious food, an exuberant dining culture and a welcoming attitude. BE DELICIOUS was the brainchild of the food entrepreneurs Herwig Dejonghe and Christof Malysse. They met each other through a mutual enthusiasm for shrimp croquette, a quintessential Belgian dish with that delicacy from the North Sea, the grey shrimp, as its main ingredient.
BE DELICIOUS brought together a group of Food Artisans who excel in a selection of tasty and refined dishes that are typically Belgian. They are enthusiastic entrepreneurs with a passion for craftsmanship and traditional methods of preparation with a modern twist. They choose only the best starting materials. Locally caught fish and local farm produce, which have a tradition in the region, provide high-quality ingredients.
These Belgian Food Artisans want to share their passion and pride for their regional cuisine with the rest of the world.
An exclusive presentation of BE DELICIOUS was held the morning of 19 January 2016 at the renowned restaurant Belga Queen in the historic centre of Brussels.
The guest of honour and speaker was The Honourable Minister Kris Peters, Deputy Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium, Minister of Economy and Employment, Minister of Foreign Trade.
