Your Sustainable Menu
1. Our Supply Chain is Local
The farm-to-table movement has been making waves in the restaurant industry and it shows no sign of slowing down. We get our produce and ingredients locally from farmer’s markets and suppliers who buy from local farmers. This cuts down on transportation costs and pollution, but it will also ensure your local farmers are supported.
In addition, local food is proven to be fresher because the distance between the farm to your kitchen to your fork is shorter.
2. We Update Your Menu Seasonally
We sync your menu with seasonal produce (meaning food grown at the same time of the year you consume it) to adapt your menu to the flow of nature, and we purchase food at its peak supply. In-season produce is generally grown closer to where it’s sold, meaning it won’t travel across the world or spoil on its way to our kitchen.
3. We do In-House Production
We make all of our own food items in-house. We pickle our own vegetables and make our own salad dressings from fresh ingredients. With in-house production, our dishes come out with a fresh, homemade taste and are sustainable to boot!
4. We have an Onsite Garden
We have a herb garden with chives, mint, rosemary, and parsley and a more complex garden full of seasonal fruits and vegetables. One of the major benefits of having an onsite garden is we can control what we grow. We have a selection of homegrown ingredients onsite at all times.
5. We Have Reduced Portion Sizes
While supersized portions have become the norm for many Western countries, much of that food ends up in the trash. A quick and easy way to reduce portion sizes is by using smaller plates.
6. We Serve Less Meat
Both the serving sizes and the amount we serve to three ounces or less
(this is the correct serving size of protein for an adult) per plate.
Instead to serve increased portions of vegan and vegetarian options.
7. We have Shrunk Our Menu
Less is truly more. Instead of trying to give dozens of dishes a green makeover, We have shrunk your menu down to a few sustainable standouts. With fewer dishes to prepare, our chefs can fully hone their efforts to make each dish as sustainable as possible.
8. We Have Reduced Food Waste
Reducing your portion sizes is one way to keep food out of the garbage,
but it’s not the only way.
We have looked for ways to reduce spoilage and repurpose kitchen scraps.
9. We are Organic
Unlike conventional farming, organic farming has a number of benefits for the environment:
Builds healthy soil that can maintain nutrients and protect against erosion
Helps to conserve and protect the water supply
Encourages healthy biodiversity
Produces less air pollution
With so many benefits for the environment,
we have chosen organic ingredients that can be more sustainable.
10. We Buy in Bulk
While less is usually more when it comes to sustainability, that isn’t always the case. For some ingredients, it can be less wasteful to buy in bulk.
Even in the case of fresh ingredients, we can purchase local produce in bulk when it’s in peak season and then find creative ways to use it such as drying, freezing, or preserving it. When you buy these menu ingredients in bulk, it means less emission on getting food delivered.
11. We Have Partnered with the Community
Our commitment to sustainability will not end with our food. We have a mission to the larger community by teaming up with community gardens programs or local farms.
12. We Have Ditched Disposable Packaging
With this in mind, we have taken a look at sustainable packaging alternatives for your delivery orders. We are making the simple switch from plastic to cardboard and using fully biodegradable packaging. We have even gone a step further by partnering with GO Box that supplies biodegradable takeout boxes.
