Brusselicious 2012, the year of gastronomy in Brussels

Brusselicious, a name that is both humorous and appetising that immediately gives a taste of what lies ahead: Brussels'gastronomy is delicious and irresistible and makes you want to take a great big bite out of it. Brusselicious will put the spotlight on all the different aspects of gourmet living in Brussels. It will showcase produce and producers, talents and creativity, places and people.

The highlight will be the traditional recipes, the food stalls, the crunch of chocolate, forgotten and rediscovered vegetables, the countless types of beers and other culinary specialities. But also the great chefs that take on the challenge of re-creating traditional favourites with their own special slant capable of conjuring up unsuspected savours.

On the markets and in the star-studded restaurants, at the streets corners and in the parks, in exceptional venues and in the bistros: food wonderful food is everywhere.
