fine dining portraits
having worked with the MICHELIN Guide for the first time in 2026, i became intrigued by the world of fine dining. with foods that are so innovative in both shape and flavour, challenging what we visually know as ‘food’, i started to work with MICHELIN restaurants to create custom menu illustrations. i recognised a need for these illustrations after visiting many places with minimalistic menu designs - often keeping dishes in suspense until it arrives in front of the customer. i wonder, are there any other ways to add to a fine-dining experience? could visuals help with understanding the work that is put into fine dining before it gets eaten?
to take it a step further, i immortalise these seasonal dishes into forever pieces and patterns.

while making these menus, i also documented the behind-the-scenes of the making these dishes while getting to know the chefs behind these gourmet creations. these one-minute episodes can be found on Instagram, Tiktok and YouTube.
