"Executive chef Fabrice Vulin of two-Michelin-starred The Tasting Room was one of the five chefs from Michelin-starred restaurants who were invited to present their dishes at the MICHELIN Guide Taipei 2019 Gala Dinner on April 10. They presented their culinary creations that were inspired by five works of art that had been carefully selected and showcase Taiwan through the different perspectives of artists. One look at Kuo Chih-Hung’s Study Of Landscape 72 and Vulin was transported back to his childhood growing up in France’s mountainous Hautes-Alpes region. Being raised on the freshest local produce of the region instilled in him a passion for high-quality ingredients that continued through his tenures at the finest dining rooms of Europe and Hong Kong. Now, Vulin brings his own interpretation of French haute cuisine to The Tasting Room at City of Dreams. Renowned for his classic yet contemporary take on French fine dining, his cooking style is built on the idea that food is as much a manifestation of friendship and humanity as it is of flavour and texture. For the gala dinner, Vulin presented a beautiful creation of beef tenderloin, artichoke ravioli, foie gras and black truffle from Provence that was inspired by Kuo’s art piece and the memories it evokes of his hometown." - Rachel Tan
