Eat Right Live Well, like a Top Chef

2005 Integrative Nutrition Graduate Christian Fischer, corporate executive chef of Lackmann Culinary Services, has won the Top Chef honor of 2009 named by the Chef2Chef.net Culinary Community.  Other top chefs include Food Network favorites Bobby Flay, Mario Batali, Jamie Oliver, Ming Tsai, and Wolfgang Puck.

By winning the Top Chef award, Chef Fischer proves that great taste is not sacrificed when eating a nutritious well balanced meal.  Lackmann encourages their “guests to make healthy choices from every food group, find a balance between physical activity and food, and get the most nutrition out of their meals. [They] also create meals with every dietary need in mind; …Kosher, Halal, gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, low sugar, organic, fat free and peanut free.”

Lackmann also offers the Eat Right Live Well program that encourages guests to make small changes for lasting results.  They implement healthy eating in all aspects of their operations, for example, their Under3 Program, offers grab and go meals, snacks and desserts under 300 calories for under $3.

Congratulations to Chef Fischer for winning Top Chef Honors and to Lackmann Culinary Services for producing high quality-and nutritious meals for their guests.
