Exposition temporaire : (R)évolutions dans l'assiette

When we think of culinary innovation, we conjure up images of a cuisine of the future, made up of dishes we've never tasted before, prepared using ultra-technological tools and staged by a chef with limitless creativity.

Is innovation in the kitchen just an extraordinary gastronomic experience? You'll discover that every meal, no matter how ordinary, hides a multitude of innovations.

Take a journey through time to discover the innovations that have punctuated the history of our food, from Paleolithic meals to space meals. A dozen plates are presented in a playful, artistic way to highlight the culinary creations, improvements, evolutions and even revolutions of different eras. Along the way, the exhibition also looks at what motivates cooks, whether professional or domestic, to create new dishes and renew the way they eat. Thanks to an immersive show, hands-on activities, games with collectors' items and interviews with chefs and experts, visitors can explore the different ways in which innovation can be achieved in the kitchen. To round things off, young designers present their vision of the plate of the future.
