As a Belgian ambassador, we are pleased to offer you a taste of Belgium’s internationally acclaimed cuisine in Business Class. A host of Michelin-starred Belgian chefs will create special dishes using local regional produce to be served on board our long-haul flights out of Brussels.
Michaël Vrijmoed
In 2023 & 2024 we indulge our Business Class passengers on their way to North America and sub-Saharan Africa with the culinary creations of Michelin Star Chef Michaël Vrijmoed.
Vrijmoed began his culinary career as a sous-chef at Hof van Cleve where he was the right-hand man to top chef Peter Goossens. In 2013, he started his own restaurant in Ghent. In recent years, it grew into one of the best vegetable restaurants in the world. After Peter Goossens, Michaël Vrijmoed is the second East Flanders chef with whom we collaborate.
The fact that restaurant Vrijmoed is one of the best vegetable restaurants in the world is also reflected in the menus that Michaël Vrijmoed has created for us. Long-haul Business Class travellers will be able to choose a fish or meat dish or a vegetarian alternative for both the starter and main course.
The wines accompanying the new Business Class menu were selected by Master of Wine Jan De Clercq, while beersommelier Sofie Vanrafelghem carefully selected our Belgian beers. The menu will evolve every three months to make the most of seasonal produce.
