We were pleasantly delighted that its held at Grand Hyatt hotel's exclusive event space instead of a restaurant setting. We were ushered from the hotel lobby to the event foyer that feels like a lux residence with sofa lounges; after getting our temperature taken &...tracing done. It felt like we're attending a exlcusive private event, with staff greeting us, had our pictures taken at the backdrop of Le Petit Chef. and got our welcome drink- champagne cocktail (we took Wine-pairing add-on). They have drinks order per glass, if you didnt opt for wine-pairing.
We learnt that the night was full, but we didn't feel the ambience was crowded bcos the maximum seating is always kept at 28 people per dinner (so we were told). The dining room was spacious enough, with table setting arranged with obvious social-distancing measure considered. We shared a table with another couple beside, but with one metre distance apart from each other, it didn't really bother us..
The 3D animation was awesome & amazing ..having to watch your table changing into different colourful scenes & of cos, the little animated chef moving around your plate. My fav scene was when our table transformed into an ocean~~
The waiter service (with mask on) wasnt interrupting at all, they only enter and serve at appointed sequence..so it was quite orderly. They have intervals in between scenes, so thats when the food was presented. You have Arabic, Indian, Chinese cuisine served over 6 different courses, in theme with the Petit Chef's Marco Polo journey, which I find it quite fun. Food presentation were quite detailed with pretty aesthetics & taste was well-executed, especially the Arabic dish. Look out for 2 dishes that's interactive where you create the 'effects' yourself (will not give detailed spoilers here).
Overall dinner was done under 90 mins, transition between courses were smooth & we didnt felt hurried as we anticipated. We truly enjoyed ourselves. If you dont have time to finish the wine, dont worry..we were allowed to take our unfinished wine to the sofa lounge in the next room to continue.
To be honest, the price might come accross pricey at first, but the theatrical dining experience with 6-course menu by the Grand Hyatt, it is an experience worth to expense at least once in a lifetime. And it was not regrettable in the end. Well done Grand Hyatt team
