【Jocelyn專欄】深入世界第一家米其林星級冰淇淋店——MINIMAL以冰打造的料理
Exploring MINIMAL, World’s First Michelin-Starred Gelato Shop
在米其林頒獎當晚聽到自己的名字,他感到意外、開心,也承受著壓力。「畢竟沒有先例,被叫到的時候很開心,但壓力也很大。」
MINIMAL位於台中,由主廚萬士傑(Arvin Wan)以獨到的風味美學與極簡哲學打造。而上個月,我們終於特別到台中一探究竟,接近下午一點,店門外已經開始有人排隊。
萬士傑的冰淇淋多以三種味道組合。「傳統冰淇淋比較像單一食材的轉換,找一個好食材冰淇淋化,過程中可能加入些想法,但仍以該食材為主。我則多從一個想法出發,靈感來源可以是任何事物,甚至單一食材也是起點,去想象它給我的感覺,再用更多元素完成它,就像料理一樣。」跟他的廚藝背景產生連結。

On the night of the Michelin ceremony, hearing his name announced brought Wan both joy and pressure: “There was no precedent. I was happy, but the pressure was immense.”
Located in Taichung, MINIMAL was founded by chef Arvin Wan (萬士傑), who built it on a distinctive vision of flavor aesthetics and minimalist philosophy. Last month, we finally made a special trip to Taichung to see it for ourselves. By around 1 p.m., a small line had already begun forming outside.
Most of Wan’s gelato creations are built around three flavors. “Traditional gelato is more like transforming a single ingredient — finding a good ingredient, making it into gelato, maybe adding a thought or two, but still keeping it centered on that ingredient. I often start from an idea instead. Inspiration can come from anything — even a single ingredient, but I imagine the feeling it gives me, then complete it with more elements, much like cooking a dish.”
