Summary: In Episode 116, we finally catch up with elite chef and world traveller, David Myers. When David isn’t creating fabulous dishes or opening up a new world renowned restaurant, he’s taking care of his own health and fitness through regular exercise and deliberate nutritional choices. While we may get the impression that chefs are not the healthiest individuals due to their stressful deadlines, long hours and proximity to food and drink, David breaks the mould and shows us that you can be both extremely fit and entirely productive in the kitchen. He outlines his approach to health and fitness, carefully integrated with his hectic international travel schedule, and gives us some practical tips on how to stay ahead of the game when it comes to taking care of your body and mind.<br><br>Gypsy Chef, global citizen and wandering soul, David Myers is based in Los Angeles, but is most often found in his restaurants across Tokyo, Singapore, and Dubai. David has trained under several of the world's most renowned chefs, including Charlie Trotter, Gerard Boyer and Daniel Boulud. In each of David’s restaurants, he draws upon the unique flavours and ingredients discovered in his travels around the world to create a unique and captivating collection of dining and drinking experiences. Each of his concepts offers a varied taste of his well-traveled culinary and personal style. His commitment to creativity, harmony and perfection in the kitchen has garnered remarkable success. David was named Best New Chef by Food & Wine magazine in 2003, and in 2017 Esquire Middle East named him ‘Chef of the Year’.
