Restaurant-goers usually pay hundreds of euros to eat the creations of Massimo Bottura, but he is serving poor Brazilians for free at the Olympics.
The 53-year-old Italian modernist chef owns Osteria Francescana in Modena, rated best in the world by Restaurant Magazine this year.
He is known for dishes such as "An eel swimming up the Po River" - eel with polenta, Campanie apple jelly, burnt saba onion and charcoal salt.
