Innovation, gastronomy, science and technology
The Smart Gastronomy Lab is a living lab on food and culinary practices. It’s uniqueness lies on its 360°C vision of food innovation with a multidisciplinary approach mixing gastronomy, science, technology and art. As a living lab it allows co-creation, prototyping and testing in real-life conditions putting the end-user at the center of the approach. Current R&D topics of the SGL are emerging technologies such as 3D food printing, lacto-fermentation, the introduction of new ingredients in food such as insects and micro algae and the impact of different cooking process on the taste.
