Sustainable food in the restaurant

4 Min.
Pic Sustainable food in the restaurant In this day and age, it is more important than ever to promote sustainable eating habits. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by using local and seasonal ingredients in our cooking. Not only do these products offer unsurpassed freshness and flavor, they also support the local economy and help reduce our environmental footprint.

Local products

Using local produce means shorter transportation distances, which in turn reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Seasonal ingredients, on the other hand, reflect the natural growing cycle and require less artificial intervention such as lighting and heating, leading to more sustainable farming.

Seasonal ingredients

Using seasonal produce means living in harmony with nature's natural growing cycle. This not only promotes biodiversity, but also ensures that we always have the freshest and most nutritious ingredients on our plates.

Sustainable philosophy

At Restaurant Löwen, we are committed to this sustainable philosophy. We work closely with regional producers to offer our guests the best that the season has to offer. From fresh herbs to hearty vegetables, every dish on our menu tells the story of our region's rich culinary landscape.

Conscious menu choice

We invite our guests to share this journey with us - through conscious menu choices that benefit not only the palate, but also our planet. Discover with us the joys and benefits of sustainable eating, and let's make a positive contribution to a greener future together.
