Tomorrow, Thursday, April 22 (aka EARTH DAY), Chef E. Michael Reidt and B&O American Brasserie will celebrate at the restaurant.
“On any given day, I estimate that nearly half of the food we work with and serve at B&O American Brasserie is organic. I fully support the farm-to-table movement and I think it’s an important part of Earth Day,” said Chef Reidt. “Our commitment to organic and local food isn’t all we do to support a sustainable world. As a Kimpton Restaurant, we take part in their EarthCare program by using non-intrusive, high quality, eco-friendly products, ingredients and services.”
B&O American Brasserie will hand out seed packets to dinner guests and will give a complimentary glass of champagne to dinner guests who wear sneakers and walk to the restaurant (of course, this is based on the customer's honesty!) Additionally, B&O American Brasserie will educate guests and Facebook followers on how they can “go green” by posting tips throughout the restaurant and on their Facebook page. Guests at the restaurant will also get to play a role by submitting their green tip for a chance to win a gift certificate from the restaurant.
In its day-to-day operation, B& O American Brasserie recycles everything from glass to cardboard to aluminum cans and paper. All of B&O American Brasserie’s menus, kitchen towels, to-go napkins and flatware are made from recycled materials and B&O American Brasserie has an in-house filtration system and sells liters of the in-house filtered Natura® Water in order to eliminate selling bottled water. The restaurant also offers an assortment of organic beverages including organic coffee and wines, is an advocate for environmentally friendly seafood and participates in the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch program, pledging to buy seafood only from sustainable sources.
