8 August 2017

Taste, meet and have a good time at the 24Kitchen Festival

 Attention food lovers! On August 12 and 13, the Foodhallen are all about 24Kitchen. It’s time for another edition of the 24Kitchen Festival where you can do, see and of course taste a lot.
There are several cooking classes and tastings to besides, taste a lot, also learn a lot. Learn for example how to make delicious, simple dishes on the camping with De Worsten van Babel, learn how to wok with Danny Jansen or try to work with chocolate wit Hidde de Brabander. Done with cooking? Then visit some tastings. You can get the change to learn more about wine, beer and/or gin-tonic and you can ask your cooking questions to the tv-chefs during the meet & greet. We’re sure you can cook after this festival ;-)

Check the website for the different cooking classes and tastings. You don’t want to miss your favourite workshop and chef!
