DINNER SHOW 3D ON YOUR TABLE
The trendy restaurant
BISTRO MARTIN

An extraordinary restaurant!

Le Petit Chef is a 3D table-mapping dinner-show: a miniature chef “cooking” and travelling… directly on your plate, while real dishes arrive synchronized with the film. In Brussels, the experience takes place at the Martin’s Brussels EU ( Schuman) hotel.

Classic and vegetarian menus as well as a children’s menu are offered; The video is identical for all the menus, only the content of the plates changes.

Why it’s cool!

  • Zero language barriers : everything is visual → perfect with children and teenagers.
  • Dedicated children’s menu (ideally 6–12 years old) and vegetarian alternatives.
  • Comfortable setting : hotel room, well-established service, regular timing

Experience – how it works

  1. You arrive a little before the sitting time and take a seat at the table.
  2. The 3D show is projected onto your table (playful scenes, travels).
  3. Each course on the menu is synchronized with the projected sequence (the film and the kitchen respond to each other).
  4. At the end, souvenir photo and “final” dessert. (The exact content of the dishes may change depending on the season and the chef.)
