The young Peter George fantasized about one day becoming a professional soccer player, or what he calls football from his British upbringing, and traveling the world. An avid player as a pre-teen, Chef Peter’s passion for soccer was honed in East London, the neighboring town to where David Beckham got his start. At 13, I was good enough to be called up for an England junior team, it’s like being an All-American, Chef Peter explains. For roughly 10 years, he played for the amateur team that fed players to a professional squad.
