Danish chef Rasmus Munk wants to take high-end cuisine to the edge of space, with plans to serve up a stratospheric dining experience in 2025, his restaurant said Thursday.
“The expedition will take place aboard Space Perspective Spaceship Neptune, the world’s first carbon-neutral spaceship,” Alchemist, the Copenhagen restaurant that has earned Munk two Michelin stars, said in a statement.
“They will dine as they watch the sunrise over the Earth’s curvature” at an altitude of 30,000 meters above sea level, it said.
For USD495,000 per ticket, six tourists will embark on a six-hour journey in a pressurized space capsule that will rise into the stratosphere in a hydrogen-filled “SpaceBalloon”.
The 32-year-old chef and self-confessed space enthusiast will be joining the trip.
Munk promises “dishes inspired by the role of space exploration during the last 60 years of human history, and the impact it has had on our society –- both scientifically and philosophically”.
