class=”sc-29f61514-0 kHgAwW”>

When shopping weekly, more and more people are taking care to put sustainable, regional and seasonal products in their shopping cart. But now we eat out almost every second meal. Most restaurants declare the origin of the meat. Where and how the vegetables or dairy products are produced is often not mentioned. These eight organic restaurants and takeaways promise a sustainable feast away from home.

The concept of Äss Bar is “Yesterday’s freshness.” In addition to bread, there are also Birchermüesli, tarts and sandwiches. Small rolls start at 50 centimetres, sandwiches about 5 francs.

The tavern is only open for lunch, but the menu changes daily. Chef and catering chef Simon Kraft uses only organically grown and regionally produced products in his kitchen. A trusting relationship with its suppliers and short shipping routes are particularly important to him.

O Bolles is a cafe in the morning, a restaurant at lunch, a bar in the evening, and an all-day neighborhood meeting place and cultural center. The menus are honest and uncomplicated, the offer changes daily. Products are locally sourced, listed on each supplier website. The restaurant opens its walls to a different artist every two months. There are also regular concerts.

Kurt Sahli, owner and founder of Ängelibeck, has been baking fresh organic wood-fired bread for over 20 years. The products used are of Demeter quality. The eggs and wheat for the flour come from Uettligen BE, a village just a few kilometers outside of Bern.

Hot or cold bowls with or without meat, take-away or take-out: Not Guilty offers light meals to suit all tastes at five locations in Zurich. The ingredients are fresh and the origin of each batch can be found on the website. For example, cows graze in Reusstal, bread is baked in Baden, and also why no tuna sandwiches in Not Guilty.

Zähringer is famous for its homemade cakes in Zurich. The offer includes daily, weekly and seasonal menus, mainly made with organic, regional and seasonal ingredients. The restaurant’s cuisine is home-style, but the menu is put together in such a way that meat eaters and vegetarians alike get their money’s worth.

Vegelateria is the first ice cream parlor in Switzerland to offer 100% organic, vegan and specially natural flavored ice cream. More than 20 flavors, ranging from the classic chocolate flavor to mango and apple-cinnamon, can certainly compete with traditional cream ice cream.

Lily’s offers fresh, varied and Asian cuisine. Only Asian-specific materials are imported, other products come from Switzerland. If you order the food home, it will be delivered in metal containers. These can be washed and returned the next time you visit Lily’s.

Careful processing of food is particularly important at Café Frühling. The goal is to throw as little trash as possible. If you can’t get enough of the portion served, you can get a second helping and takeout is also possible. The coffee comes from the on-site cloister. Eggs, vegetables and milk come from local organic farms.
