'Bruges - more than just chocolate'. Sevenoaks Supper Club invites you to enjoy a delicious meal and a fascinating talk from guest speaker Melanie Gibson-Barton on Bruges. Melanie is an acclaimed after-dinner speaker and her talk is colourfully illustrated and wide-ranging and provides an insider’s view of the beautiful city of Bruges, in Flanders in north Belgium. Although famous for its chocolate the talk sets out to prove that the Gothic city represents more than just this popular delicacy. The importance of Bruges to elements of Flemish culture include its language, lace, cycling - and chips! From being a wealthy medieval port for Europe, Bruges escaped the ravages of the Industrial Revolution and the effects of two World Wars to become a draw to travellers from the 1890s to today.
