For the super-rich, it appears, one world-famous Michelin-starred chef is no longer quite enough to make a memorable meal. Wealthy gastronomes are increasingly asking high-end restaurants and hotels to host so-called “four hands” dinners in which pairs of renowned chefs team up to create collaborative set-course meals.
Next Wednesday, 60 diners will sit down to a “glorious four-hands banquet” created by the pioneering French chef Alain Ducasse in partnership with Wolfgang Puck, an Austrian-American cook who has hosted the official Oscars after-party dinner for the past 29 years, at a five-star hotel on London’s Park Lane. Together, they hold 23 Michelin stars.
