When we developed our Taste of Living Better (TOLB) menu and philosophy, we explored some of the world’s healthiest, longest-living communities—places where people regularly live past 100—to understand what kept them thriving.

What we discovered was beautifully simple. These communities focused on:

• Fresh, wholesome food made from quality ingredients
• Strong social connections that bring meaning to life
• Daily movement that feels natural and enjoyable

Movement as a Way of Life

For these long-living communities, movement isn’t something they have to think about. It just happens. There are no strict workout plans or intense gym sessions. Instead, activity is built into their daily routines in a way that feels effortless and enjoyable. From walking up the hills of Ikaria to gardening in Okinawa, these people stay active because it’s simply part of how they live.

Try incorporating these simple movement habits into your daily life:

• Stretch out with relaxing yoga
• Explore your neighborhood by bike
• Do some gardening
• Take a walk to start your day–passing by your local Le Pain Quotidien for a delicious coffee or snack, of course 😉

Even gentle movement can positively transform how you feel each day.

Fuel Your Movement with Protein

Staying active starts with the right fuel. Protein helps build strength, support recovery, and keep energy levels steady, whether you’re tackling a workout or just moving through the day. As we age, protein becomes even more important for maintaining muscle and mobility.

Our high-protein dishes make it easy to nourish your body while enjoying fresh, delicious food. From organic baked eggs to salmon gravlax tartines or protein pancakes, we offer plenty of delicious ways to power up your plate.

Just like natural movement, eating well should feel easy. Next time you visit us, try one of our protein-packed meals to give your body what it needs to move and enjoy the taste of living better.
