De Karmeliet
Langestraat 19
8000 Brugge
This iconic former three-star restaurant of chef Geert Van Hecke is home to the Culinary Arts students of VIVES University College and at the same time the beautiful setting for a wonderful culinary experience.
Every year, the doors of this iconic building swing wide open to the general public. In autumn, from Monday to Thursday, for dinner prepared by the second-year Culinary Arts students and in spring for lunch/dinner prepared by the first-year Culinary Arts students.

Tête Pressée
Koningin Astridlaan 100
8200 Brugge
Chef Pieter Lonneville's well-known Bruges restaurant Tête Pressée became vacant because chef Pieter started up other professional challenges. Thanks to its unique concept (open kitchen) and location (near the university), this became a great opportunity for demo lessons, workshops with (international) chefs and the home base for the final-year Culinary Arts students to open their unique graduation concept (different formula every week) to the general public every year at the end of November/December. An experience!
