Culinary Atlas Prompt to Generate History of any Dish using ChatGPT
Featured Image

Use one prompt to generate a premium open-book image that teaches the real history of any dish on the left page and shows the finished dish as a hyper-real 3D pop-up diorama on the right page. The secret is to force a two-stage build: first a hidden research brief, then a locked visual layout with hard constraints so the model cannot drift into generic food art.

Prompt


Culinary Atlas Series, single open book spread, cinematic top-down view, macro detail, premium collectible editorial look.

Dish: {dish_name}

Hard requirement: Automatically infer the most likely origin region/culture, core ingredients, and historical evolution. Do not ask questions.

Stage 0, internal brief (do not render as text in the image):
- Determine: origin era, origin place, key migration points, major ingredient changes, modern form.
- Identify: 5 timeline milestones with approximate centuries/decades.
- Identify: 3 traditional tools or cooking methods strongly associated with the dish.
- Identify: 3 culturally accurate symbols or motifs appropriate to the origin culture, respectful and non-stereotyped.
- Identify: modern plating or serving style that is common today.

Now render the image as a single open book, no extra objects, no grids, no border layouts, no table scenery.

Left page, History:
- Aged paper texture
- Flat 2D vintage sepia ink illustrations only
- Old cookbook engraving style, no depth, no 3D, no modern photography
- Clear visual timeline from earliest form to modern day using 5 milestones
- Show traditional tools, early preparation, cultural motifs
- Use simple icon-like vignettes along the timeline
- No readable paragraphs, only tiny label-like markings that may be partially illegible

Right page, Reality:
- Ultra-realistic 3D pop-up paper engineering diorama emerging from the page
- The finished dish is oversized, steaming, fresh, rich textures, realistic materials
- A tiny miniature chef from the origin culture stands beside the dish, in traditional attire, interacting naturally, respectful depiction
- Pop-up paper edges, folds, tabs subtly visible, handcrafted museum-quality build

Lighting and camera:
- Single cinematic top-down lighting that emphasizes the contrast: flat illustrated left page vs deep 3D right page
- Warm highlights, gentle shadows, macro crispness, high resolution

Negative constraints:
- One book only
- No plates, no cutlery, no extra props
- No floating food
- No additional pages
- No collage, no multiple books
