Italy's top chef Massimo Bottura has officially opened the doors to his London soup kitchen, where Michelin-starred chefs will turn surplus foods destined for the landfills into gourmet meals for the city's homeless, elderly and refugees.

Refettorio Felix recently served its first lunch service, with a three-course meal improvised by Bottura from 50 crates of surplus food that included a vegetable soup to start, pasta with leftover bread crumbs, and a homemade ice cream made with Earl Grey tea and biscuits.
