Dorothée Goffin says the Smart Gastronomy Lab is tasked with studying ways foodstuffs can be printed in 3D with new shapes and textures to resemble products which will be both visually appealing and nutritionally sound. Goffin's SGL in Belgium is packed with 3D printers, digital milling machines and more common kitchen equipment, and the goal is to bring together a rotating team of technicians, chefs and the random curious and hungry visitor to examine and direct the future of 3D printed food. Goffin says the key to the project is that it “puts the user in the center of the concept, including him in the creative, prototyping and test phases.” You can read the whole story here: http://3dprint.com/85345/smart-gastronomy-lab/
