LE PETIT CHEF & FRIENDS

Le Petit Chef is just 6 cm tall, and he will not grow any bigger. According to legend, he was born in April 2015 in Marseille, France. Enjoy an unforgettable experience with delightful dining and entertainment. By using a profound artistic knowledge, and combining it with the latest technology, his "parents" - the art directors of Skullmapping - tell stories with stunning bespoke visuals, such as “Le Petit Chef”. The technology they use is called 3D Projection Mapping. We promise, it will capture your imagination :)

The show is paired with themed music, props, and an exquisite menu. A miniature chef to life on your dinner table, all through the magic of visual mapping. By mapping your dining table and the objects on it (e.g. your plates and cutlery), we are able to project a virtual story onto the tabletop. The 3D effect is often thought of as a hologram or a 3D projection. In fact the use of special optical techniques, length distortions from the right angle to produce the effect or illusion of 3D.

To ensure that all guests enjoy this unique dining experience, we would like to ask that all members of your party are present at least 15 minutes prior to your booking. Latecomers will be allowed into the room at an appropriate interval. Late comers might not be served all courses of the menu.

Please be informed that you might sit together with other guests because of technical conditions.
