The Smallest Chef 

Le Petit Chef adds a little je ne sais quoi to the fine dining experience

By Morgan Mugwira 

Some may find themselves in the position of wanting a little more when it comes to their fine dining experience. Sure, there are several award-winning spots in the city that are fantastic. But sometimes it can be nice to try something new.  

Le Petit Chef, one of the city’s newest offerings, provides diners a unique holographic storytelling experience with every meal, adding a show to dinner in an unexpected way.  

During this immersive dining experience, diners will watch as their order is fulfilled by a tiny chef projected onto their table. The 3D Projection mapping of this show is accompanied by props and themed music. After the show, the ordered food will be delivered to the table. 

Le Petit Chef offers a wide selection of food with vegetarian and child-friendly options. Guests can choose from four menus each, which are priced individually: Le Petit Chef Grand Menu, Le Petit Chef Classic, Le Petit Chef Vegetarian and Le Petit Chef Vegan Kids. Vegan, dairy-free and gluten-free options are also available with notice at the time of booking.  

Le Petit Chef immersive dining experience is available March 27, 2026- March 29, 2026. Le Petit Chef will be available at Le Méridien Columbus, located at 620 N High St, Columbus, Ohio.For more information about Le Petit Chef, visit their website.
