Symposium Gastronomicum of all nations'. 'The renowned Soyer exhibiting his magnificent stove ..'.. Alexis Benoist Soyer (4 February 1810 - 5 August 1858) was a French chef who became the most celebrated cook in Victorian England and was arguably the first celebrity chef. He also tried to alleviate suffering of the Irish poor in the Great Irish Famine (1845-1849), and improve the food provided to British soldiers in the Crimean War. In 1849 Soyer began to market his "magic stove" which allowed people to cook food wherever they were. It was designed to be a tabletop stove.
