Vivek, who often appears on Saturday Kitchen and Masterchef, has embraced Googles controversial wearable technology and given budding cooks a chef's-eye-view of one of his signature dishes, Tandoori Sea Bream.

Google Glass allows Vivek to share how he prepares his dish from his perspective, giving a new way to show others the detail of his top-chef skills.

Proving the technology, VistaBee’s (whose clients include Google, Zoopla and Newsquest) CEO Steve Reilly is a Google Glass Explorer and is testing the search engine giant’s prototype. This is the first time two pairs of Google Glass have been used simultaneously to create a celebrity food video.

Steve Reilly, says “It’s fascinating to watch Vivek at work, the detail in the preparation of how the dish is prepared and the intimacy of this type of technology gives budding foodies a real insight into this chef’s talent”. “You get to see close up how the dish is prepared in a way that’s not been possible before with traditional technology, it’s a game changer for the food industry and we’re delighted to help bring this technology to market”.

Vivek Singh, says“We are delighted to work together with Steve and VistaBee to bring this unique type of Google Glass video to market, and share some of the tips of the trade with those who love great food.  Truly this is a great technology, after a few minutes it becomes so natural to show the detail in the preparation of creative Indian cuisine.
