Some 40,000 meals will be served each day during the Paris Games to over 15,000 athletes from 200 different countries housed at the Olympic village. Fresh bread, select cheeses and a broad veggie offer will be among the meals to be offered during the 2024 Paris Olympics — including, of course, gourmet dishes created by renowned French chefs.

French baker Tony Dore prepares baguettes, like those that will be served during the. Olympic Games, Tuesday, April 30, 2024 in Paris. Some 40,000 meals will be served each day during the Games to over 15,000 athletes housed at the Olympic village. A bread salad made by chef Stephane Chicheri is presented Tuesday, April 30, 2024 in Paris. Some 40,000 meals will be served each day during the Games to over 15,000 athletes housed at the Olympic village.

“Of course, there will be some classics for athletes, like pasta,” said Nathalie Bellon-Szabo, global CEO of Sodexo Live! But the food will have a “very French touch.” Every day, during the July 26-Aug. 11 Games, a top chef — including some awarded with Michelin stars — will cook in front of the athletes at the Olympic Village, “so they’ll be able to chat and better understand what French cuisine is about — and to understand a bit of our culture as well,” Chaignot said.

“The idea is to offer athletes the chance to grab a piping hot baguette for breakfast,” said baker Tony Doré, who will be working at the Olympic Village’s main restaurant. Paris 2024 organizers have promised to make the Games more sustainable and environment-friendly — and that includes efforts to reduce the use of plastic. To this effect, the main restaurant at the village will use only reusable dishes.
