Description
Opportunity:
Fills a gap for a chef led approach to sustainability to be used on core 'sustainable restaurants modules'. Other books take a recipe based sustainable approach to sustainability or looks at the hospitality as an industry.Systematic approach: uniquely takes the reader through the whole supply chain and life cycle of a restaurant from sourcing to after consumption by customers (waste).
Coverage: Looks at whole life cycle of restaurant, as well as discussion of certificates, kitchen design and how spaces can contribute to more sustainable food systems.
