Chef Viki, one of Belgium’s most celebrated chefs, is known for his refined technique and innovative, experimental approach to flavors. A self-taught culinary master, he forged his path to the top through dedication and discipline.
In 2021, he earned the rare distinction of a third Michelin star, with the Guide praising him as a "fastidiously meticulous chef who delicately plays with each texture and flavor, conjuring up food that is complex and gutsy, yet free of fussy frills."
His restaurant, Zilte, located on the highest floor of the MAS Museum with panoramic views of Antwerp, is one of only two 3-starred establishments in Belgium. Since 2023, it has been a distinguished member of Relais & Châteaux, and in 2024, it joined the prestigious Les Grandes Tables du Monde. Zilte also holds an 18.5/20 rating from Gault & Millau, a renowned French restaurant guide.
At Le Beaulieu, Chef Viki will collaborate with Chef de Cuisine Charles Degrendele, a native of Marseille, France.
Chef Charles brings a fresh perspective to modern French cuisine with a culinary background that spans diverse cultures and influences. His dishes epitomize his culinary vision in three words: sustainable, innovative and simple. They showcase the finest produce, pay homage to dedicated suppliers, and present ingredients in an artistic and elegant manner.
Together, the two chefs will craft an exceptional six-course menu, where sophisticated compositions, daring flavors and a masterful play on textures blend seamlessly.
The meals will be served on April 4 and 5, between 6pm and 10pm, and priced at VND 7,000,000++ per person (with an optional VND 2,900,000++ add-on for wine pairing).
The dinners will have limited availability and the hotel highly recommends securing a place early for this exclusive dining opportunity. The collaboration promises a one-of-a-kind gastronomic experience, drawing food connoisseurs in the local community and beyond.
