Bouts on your Plate
Dieric Bouts puts a unique spin on how we view art, culture, and food during the city festival. Bouts on your Plate expands your culinary horizons. Let old and new flavours blow you away, and indulge in Bouts on your Plate at participating restaurants and speciality shops from 22 September to 14 January.
