Food printing technologies : 3D Printed Food At Food Ink.

 

 A new pop up restaurant, adorably named Food Ink. is using 3D to provide meals. The food ink Co-founded by Antony Dobrzensky and Marcio Barradas, in conjunction with a small host of advisers, the restaurant has offered a small number of diners the chance to have a meal that is entirely produced with 3D printers. The first event was successfully held in April in Venlo, the Netherlands, and the next venue will be in London from July 25-. The team has its eyes and hearts set on a breathtaking array of venues as part of its 2016 world tour from Berlin to Barcelona and NYC to Tokyo. 

The meal that diners at Food Ink. will experience consists of nine courses and is 3D printed live, and live-streamed, to what are expected to be packed houses. And it’s more than just the food that will be on show. Even the utensils and the seating furniture have been produced with 3D printing – an immersive additive manufacturing experience indeed.  

 The furniture in the gastro-pub includes 3D printed stools created by the team’s design adviser Arthur Mamou-Mani. 

These pieces were produced using Silkworm, an open-source plug-in for Rhino developed by Mamou-Mani himself called the Smoke Stool, the pieces are not only showing up in the pop-up but also as rewards in a Kickstarter campaign for his own project to build an architectural installation at Burning Man.  

 The food is produced using byFlow 3D printers from ingredients such as hummus, chocolate mousse, and anything else that can be utilized in a paste form. The experience is billed as “fine dining hacked,” and the flashy videos show elegant forms and beautifully delicate dishes served to a series of equally elegant diners. 

 There is more to this than just a mechanical production of food; the chefs work extremely hard to take these creations and turn them into something greater than just what leaves the printer’s nozzle. 

This is a far cry from the work-free magic of TV dinners or microwave popcorn; the printer is just one tool in a still very complete kitchen.
