Have you met Le Petit Chef yet?
Just 6 inches tall, this diminutive cook appeared in Calgary in 2024, whipping up a 4-course meal as he scurried around your plate, through the magic of 3-D video projection. Now his friends have arrived, and there’s an all-new show. Le Petit Chef and Friends features our original culinary maestro competing in a delicious duel with his friends from Spain, Italy and Japan. This immersive dinner show experience is the perfect way to celebrate this summer. School is nearly finished for the year, and it’s time to delight your family with the enchanting Le Petit Chef and Friends.
Le Petit Chef and Friends
This new show at The Dorian brings even more excitement, laughter, and delicious evenings to Calgarians this summer, plus special deals, beginning at the end of May! Thursdays are Social Nights, with a 3-course meal, as the Italian chef takes a break. Tickets are $95, and you can enjoy half-price bottles of wine. And Sundays are Family Nights! The classic 4-course meal is $129, and you’ll receive children’s meals (ages 5 – 12) at 50% off.
The 4-course classic menu begins with a Marinated & Manchego appetizer, followed by a Truffled Four Cheese Ravioli pasta. You’ll enjoy Steak Frites for the main course, topped off with Japanese Mont Blanc, a green tea matcha cheesecake, for dessert. A vegetarian option and a children’s menu are also available, so everyone can enjoy the experience. (Please note that the videos are the same for all three menus, based on the classic menu.)
