2 Mins read

Jan Smink, a Top Chef and Ambassador of byFlow – a Dutch company that produces and sells 3D food printers service announced the opening of a high-end restaurant that will serve 3D printed food to its guests. Slated to open in September this year, in Wolvega, Netherlands, the new restaurant will be the first place in Netherlands to offer 3D printed food on the menu.

Apart from serving 3D printed food, customers in Smink’s new restaurant will also get an opportunity to see the process that goes into 3D food printing. Smink, in his restaurant will keep the preparations process visible for his customers and will “manufacture” food on the spot at the table.

3D printing food basically involves building structures of food in layer by layer form following the principle of 3D printing. Most 3D printers are deposition printers which deposit the food in a liquid paste. Another category of food printers use the principle of binder jetting where food raw material is joined together using an edible binding agent. However, newer types of food printers are being invented by combining various other 3D printing technologies and principles.
