Cheese and Wine Sommelier

Tom Miesen highlights MLH:

The Gourmet Dutch event isn't just about celebrating food although that itself would be more than a reason to go to Mount Lavinia Hotel next week this April 26 to the 28.

The hotel will be the ultimate dream to experience the Dutch culture and cuisine along with Gourmet Cheeses and European Wines. To celebrate the Dutch Queen mother's birthday known as Queen's Day or Koninginnedag, MLH has created a three day event, beginning with a Gourmet Cheese and European Wine pairing event that will be held on 26th April, Gourmet Dutch Dinner with Tom Miesen on 27.

"This festive month we give you not only one but two reasons to indulge your taste buds. Enter Gourmet Cheese tasting with Dutch Slow food," GM Anura Dewapura stated. Slow Food being a movement with over 100,000 members worldwide, as well as a network of 2,000 food communities who practice small-scale and sustainable production of quality foods. MLH being the pioneers in introducing the slow food concept to Sri Lanka, the Dutch slow food night is a treat to all food enthusiasts who love good food combined with an even better company. The Gourmet Cheese tasting session with a Dutch Slow Food will be held on April 28.
