Lunch-conference "At the bourgeois table"

Wed, 12 May 2027 · 19:00
Wine Bar des Marolles, Brussels
In the 19th century, food entered the era of great transformations. We follow the rise of the bourgeoisie, the industrialization of food production, and the spread of new ways of eating. Preserves, transport, restaurants, service rules, and etiquette helped make practices once reserved for the elite accessible. Because by producing more, consuming differently, and democratizing customs, the 19th century durably shaped our modern relationship with the table. This story will be told to you by food historian Pierre Leclercq and the historical meal will be prepared by chef Alex Van Kalck. *** MENU *** Potage Jacqueline (asparagus and young carrots) *** Mackerel fillets with anchovy cream *** Stuffed quail *** Rum baba Reservation: The meal-conference (soup-starter-main course-dessert, excluding drinks): €50.
