Nobel Banquet Features Family-Crafted Cuisine
Every year, there's a big dinner called the Nobel Prize banquet in Sweden.
This year, over 40 chefs are making a special three-course meal for the winners of the Nobel Prize, the royal family, and other important people.
The chefs are using ingredients from the Nordic forest, like mushrooms and berries.
They also made special butter knives with the help of family members.
The menu is a secret until the dinner starts, but we know there will be lots of champagne and a dessert made with berries.
The chefs are excited to show their unique cooking style at this big event.
Over 40 chefs, including Pi Le and Tommy Myllymaki, are preparing a three-course meal for the Nobel Prize banquet in Stockholm.
The menu features Nordic forest ingredients like dried porcini mushrooms and sloe berries, with 400 bottles of champagne served.
The tableware has been updated with an oak butterknife designed by Pi Le's brother, crafted with help from his family.
Nobel pastry chef Frida Backe has created a dessert inspired by her childhood forest experiences with her grandparents.
The banquet is a family affair, with chefs and their families contributing to the event's preparations.
