As a multi-Michelin star awarded chef renowned worldwide for his innovative culinary creations and expertise reimagining cooking, Massimo Bottura has fed some of the best food to some of the world’s most rich and famous people. But in founding Food for Soul, a non-profit that values the health and well-being of the planet and its people through cooking, and the Refettorio Ambrosiano, a dining space for people experiencing homelessness and poverty on the outskirts of Milan, he was looking to use his skills and knowledge to give something back. Ahead of the first annual Global Street Paper Summit since before the pandemic, where delegates will eat at the Refettorio, Chef Bottura talked to the International Network of Street Papers about the power of communal dining and using food for good.
