Brussels Airlines Announces New Celebrity Inspired Dishes

[dropcap size=small]B[/dropcap]russels Airlines has always supported Belgian talent by providing top quality local products to customers onboard. The airline serves some of Belgium’s finest beers and wines, pralines, waffles and cookies. 

The airline has just announced a new range of meals inspired by local dishes from Luxemburg, and Star Chef Julien Lahire has created the recipes from Le Moulin Hideux which has been around since 1962. His motto is to always look for the best quality, and Chef Julien still meets the producers of products that he purchases for his meal creations.

The meals are now being served to business class passengers on long-haul flights to the US and Africa. This range of meals will run until July 2014. During April, passengers can expect starters such as chicken ballotines with walnuts presented with iceberg salad and crisp vegetables.

After July the airline will yet again select a new Michelin starred chef this time most likely from the province of Flemish Brabant. Of course, Business Class passengers can still choose from two different menu options during their flight or one of the 21 different special meals that the airline offers for those who require a diet specific meal.
