Lionel Rigolet*
Chef Lionel Rigolet is a master of classic cuisine. Though he doesn’t come from a hospitality family, his career began at the iconic Comme Chez Soi in Brussels, where he still works today.
He originally started out in the dining room, until he met Laurence, daughter of the renowned chef Pierre Wynants. That encounter led him into the kitchen, where he quickly made his mark. His eagerness to learn took him to top establishments at home and abroad, such as Sir Anthony Van Dijck, Girardet, Joël Robuchon, and Auberge de l’Ill.
In 1994, he returned to Brussels and married Laurence. Since 2006, they have run Comme Chez Soi together: Lionel as head chef, Laurence as the hostess.
In 2007, he was named “Chef of the Year” by Gault & Millau. His style blends tradition and modernity, with a meticulous eye and deep love for the craft. Today, he is considered a fixture in Belgium’s fine dining scene
V12 SUPERCARS
The V12 Engine: A True Icon of Automotive Art and Engineering. The V12 engine may well be the ultimate symbol of automotive artistry and engineering excellence. Over the years, this rare powerhouse has been chosen by the most prestigious car manufacturers to propel their top-tier models. From the elegant Lagondas that roared through Le Mans in the 1930s to the ultra-modern Aston Martin Valkyrie, the V12 has always stood for prestige, performance, and pure driving pleasure.
With twelve pistons moving in perfect harmony, the V12 delivers a silky-smooth refinement that smaller engines simply cannot match. The sound alone is an experience unto itself—a mechanical symphony of power and sophistication. Think of the raw character of V12 supercars like the Lamborghini Murciélago or the thrilling wail of a Ferrari F50 screaming at over 8,000 revolutions per minute.
Yet the V12 is gradually falling out of fashion. Stricter environmental regulations, the rise of electric vehicles, and a growing push for efficiency are signaling the end of this majestic engine configuration. Only a handful of brands still offer it today. That’s precisely why now is the time to honor the V12, with a unique collection of the finest V12 sports cars from past and present. A fitting tribute to a true icon.
