On the evening of 9 June stars will not only rise above the night sky of Antwerp, but also culinary stars will rise to the occasion at the annual gourmet event “EUROPA’s Best”. More than 30 renowned European chefs, winegrowers, chocolatiers, fromagers and pâtissiers will join together on board the 5-star-plus-ship MS EUROPA (according to Berlitz Cruise Guide 2013) in order to treat the guests to extraordinary culinary creations. MS EUROPA chef de cuisine Stefan Wilke welcomes the gourmet elite on board Hapag-Lloyd Cruises’ flagship, to spark a feast for the senses.
During the year starred chefs create culinary diversity on each one of EUROPA’s cruises.
