August is turning out to be quite the month of sporting events and incredible achievements for British athletes and sportspeople.

Whether lucky enough to be visiting Brazil and getting to watch any of the Olympic events live or enjoying watching the games in the UK in this wonderful weather we are currently having, you can’t help but be inspired by these amazing athletes. We have heard a lot about the legacy of the Olympics and whether that may be motivating you to pull on your trainers and get to the gym, take on an extra fitness class or even considering a diet overhaul, you really can appreciate the positive effect that the Olympics has on us all.

It goes without saying that our Galor chefs can cater for any of your dietary requirements when you hire them for any of your social events, whether low carb, low fat, gluten free etc. So for that special occasion when you want to treat your guests to a wonderfully decadent meal, without breaking any healthy eating guidelines you are following, we can still ensure that your menu has that wow factor. Healthy does not mean bland or boring to a Galor chef.

Did you know that you can also hire Galor chefs for private cooking lessons? If you would like to give your normal diet a bit of an Olympic Sports nutrition inspired makeover, or take some influence from the exuberant flair of Brazilian cuisine, then please don’t hesitate to contact us. Our chefs can suggest recipes and show you the skills required to cook them in the privacy of your own home, further improving your repertoire of go to meals or building your confidence to be able to cook a new signature dish that will really impress your guests or loved ones.

Tip:

If the sport really isn’t to your liking, you can still get involved with the Brazilian influence by allowing it to inspire your cooking. You can transform any steak with the addition of a Chimichurri sauce. This fresh South American herb sauce will pep up any meal it is added to.
