World's best chef uses leftover Olympic food to feed the poor

Massimo Bottura - whose restaurant has just been voted best in the world - is using leftovers from the Olympic Village to feed the poor.
Once the world's top athletes have eaten their fill, rather than being thrown away, the leftover food is sent to the Italian chef's special new restaurant in central Rio. There Massimo and his group of international chefs serve up three course meals to the city's homeless, who get to dine "like millionaires".
