I was born in 2015 in Belgium at Skullmapping Studios. My parents raised me in a matchbox. I’m just 58 mm tall, and I will not grow any larger. As long as I can remember I wanted to become a great cook. I established a tiny little food stand in Marseille. But my food was terrible. I desperately needed some culinary inspiration. So I traveled all the way to China – in the footsteps of Marco Polo. And guess what? The spices I brought back from the Silk Road made the difference! I’m so so famous now! Just check out my videos on YouTube with more than 7 million views logged 🙂
My first public appearance as a celebrity chef came in Leuven at the Christmas market in 2015. The next year I was invited to cook for an enthusiastic audience at the World Trade Club restaurant in Dubai. By the end of 2017 I did run my show in five of the world’s finest properties …

2018 was my breakthru year. More fine dining restaurants invited me to shine in the spotlight with my 3D Projection Mapping show. 11 to be exact.
When busy cooking, I sometimes act a little clumsy and get myself into all sorts of hilarious scrapes. But luckily the real-life meals from the local chefs always bail me out. For some weird reason, their dishes bear startling resemblances to my animations. I wonder why?
