Who Says yogis don't eat gourmet food?!

On a YMI Retreat you can expect more than just amazing yoga from the UK's best yoga teachers. We are lucky to working with renowned gourmet health food chef Christophe Reissfelder on our upcoming retreat in Somerset with Nadia Narain. Here is an introduction to Christophe and a sneak peak at the delicious menu that he will be preparing for us...

Christophe Reissfelder is a French chef who has donned many hats. After successfully launching the first raw food restaurant in London (the acclaimed Little Earth Café in Primrose Hill), he is now active as menu consultant to restaurants in Paris, professional caterer, and cookery class teacher.
