bringing a whole new perspective to the culinary experience, ‘dinner in the sky’ was founded in belgium in 2006 by hakuna matata — a communications agency specializing in gourmet pleasures — and the fun group — a company invested in amusement park installations. since then, the kitchen in the clouds has been touring the world, and in 2016 celebrated its ten year anniversary. for those brave enough to make the 50 meter climb, dinner in the sky provides world class cuisine with a view that’s more than a little hard to beat.

true to its roller-coaster roots, diners are strapped securely into place before being hoisted above some of the worlds most iconic landscapes. notable locations in the past have included the kuala lumpur tower, the marina of dubai, the villa borghese in rome, copacabana beach and the london eye. in the summer of 2017, the experience returns to its birthplace: brussels. but with great height comes great responsibility, and the food makes the vertiginous dinner table more than worth it. massimo bottura — owner and head chef of the three-michelin-starred osteria francescana restaurant in modena — just finished up a two day stint in the sky in january 2017, and is just the latest in a long line of culinary connoisseurs to take part. with 45 countries already under its belt and a schedule that extends to september 2017, dinner in the sky is more than likely to float over your head at some point soon.
