With its location in metropolitan Brussels, the Le Chalet de la Forêt brings together tradition and avant-garde elements in perfect harmony. The beauty of the location – with the town’s hustle and bustle as a backdrop – the passing of the seasons in the vegetable garden and the generous cuisine of the remarkable talent that is Pascal Devalkeneer combine to make this a place of excellence (awarded two stars by the Michelin guide).
“It was an honor for us to host wines from such diverse terroirs – Virginia and Tuscany – from estates owned and cherished by a single family, the Zonins, who are working on two continents with similar passion!”

“An excellent event; one of the best restaurants I have ever had the pleasure of discovering, as well as the honor of being guided through the tasting by Lorenzo Zonin, an iconic personality of Italian wine whom – until then – I had only known by name.”
