Le Petit Chef: An Immersive Dining Experience has now moved into the old WP24 spot at the Ritz Carlton downtown.

The interactive 3D experience is TableMation’s newest dining presentation and lets diners go on an entertaining journey following an animated chef character that appears on their dinner plate.

The two-hour dinner follows the tiny French Le Petit Chef as he explains how to become the world’s greatest chef. He appears like magic to tell diners about the history, inspiration and ingredients for each of the five courses presented throughout the meal.
