The world’s smallest chef takes over the hotel's restaurant La Cave to whip up special menus inspired by Marco Polo’s travels
We’re always looking for extraordinary culinary experiences, so it wasn’t surprising when the 58mm Le Petit Chef became a viral sensation after it was first introduced by Belgian artist collective Skullmapping in 2015.
Merging our love for delicious food, entertainment and cutting-edge technology, the ‘world’s smallest chef’ brings guests on an immersive gastronomic adventure (without having to leave the dining table) through the use of overhead projectors and 3D digital project mapping.
The fictional character made his debut in Singapore in January, as part of the iLight Festival festivities. This time around, he is in town longer as he takes over Grand Hyatt Singapore’s wine cellar, La Cave at mezza9, from September 5 to December 30; the special menus will be available for lunch and dinner.
Created exclusively for Grand Hyatt Singapore, this latest showcase spotlights Le Petit Chef’s sojourn from France to China, inspired by Marco Polo’s voyage to the East via the Silk Road. During the two-hour tale of adventure gastronomic discoveries, guests will witness the chef cross the Atlantic ocean and traverse continents in search of ingredients, spices and cooking techniques to make him a better chef.
