Michelin-star food awaits athletes at 2024 Paris Olympics, where top chefs will cook dishes with a ‘very French touch’
- Baguettes, Brie and croissants with a twist are among the items that will be served at the ‘world’s largest restaurant’ in the Paris 2024 Olympic Village
- Some of France’s top chefs will cook gourmet dishes in front of athletes to show what ‘French cuisine is about’ as part of the Games’ sustainable food programme

Freshly cooked bread, selected cheeses and vegetables will be among the foods available to athletes and visitors at the 2024 Paris Olympics – as well as gourmet dishes created by leading French chefs.
About 40,000 meals are expected to be served each day during the Games to the more than 15,000 athletes from 200 countries housed at the Olympic Village.
Visitors, too, will be able to enjoy some specially created snacks at the different venues.
French food services company Sodexo Live!, which was selected to oversee the catering at the Olympic Village and 14 venues of the Games, says it has created 500 recipes to be offered at a sit-down restaurant in the Village. With seating for up to 3,500 people, it is said to be the “world’s largest restaurant”.

“Of course, there will be some classics for athletes, like pasta,” says Nathalie Bellon-Szabo, the global chief executive of Sodexo Live! But the food will have a “very French touch”.
