ID Foods (Tabasco)
TABASCO's One-Star Restaurant
Rethink
BronzeBrand Content
Tabasco was created to awaken and elevate flavours. But that’s difficult to convey using just words. So the brand decided to demonstrate the sauce’s flavour-enhancing power with the “One-Star Restaurant” and film. Working with Rethink, the brand documented Chef John Mike Leblond as he turned the worst-rated takeout food into four-star dishes using only a few drops of Tabasco. The meals were then served at L’Étoile, with the pop-up selling out fast. The experience was turned into a two-minute social spot and seeded out by food bloggers.
