Acorn House: London's First Sustainable Restaurant

By Kate Andrews

In the mood for a night out in the UK capital? Why not try out one of the premiere sustainable restaurants in London! Acorn House is pitched as London's first truly eco-friendly training restaurant and describes itself as "set to alter the image of the restaurant industry as well as transform the way in which people eat out." The innovative restaurant employs an excellent set of sustainable strategies including composting and recycling all of its waste, sourcing local and seasonal ingredients, and training generations of young chefs in the finer points of eco-friendly cuisine. These features have led UK Newspaper The Times to describe Acorn House as "the most important restaurant to open in London in the past 200 years."

Hey Leigh

 

Forgot to ask you the other day. Lynn has told me students aren't reading the blog - that means not looking at the youtube (which is pretty cool) or reading the material. I have noticed that they tend to go straight to the activity (which they aren't reading properly either) any suggestions.

 

Also have you set up a new blog for the research work based project? I have set one up and now there are two?? Do you want to put a banner on one and delete the other? Thanks for the editing on the wiki for the Scope article.

 

Am looking at Sustainable course outline tomorrow. So will be in touch. Got a copy of the one you sent to Anna.

 

Hows that wee puppy?

 

Cheers Hillary
