    This video is pretty, but it really glosses over the problems and struggles he had in founding the restaurant in favor of this traditional story arc. There was a hint at specificity, but the concrete challenges he faced and the solutions he found were made out to be abstract and vague. It's cool to make cool inspirational videos to poignant music, but the zero waste movement in the restaurant industry doesn't need more feel-good inspirational videos. I think we really could've benefitted here from letting the story take a more organic form true to its setbacks, true to the nuances of the nature of the work, and without a manufactured ah-ha moment to drive it forward.

    "Waste is just a failure of the imagination"
    Damn that quote hit deep.
    As someone who is studying fashion I see culinary arts as similar to the industry I am studying. They are both very wasteful with small pieces of fabric going to the trash; as well as the FF industry publicizing the buy and throw away idea. The amount of trash that these two industries go through has made me mindful of what i use. I feel this quote is powerful because it challenges the norms of both wasteful industry.

    Lunch is between £6 and £10.50
    + 12.5% service charge.
    A *6-course dinner* is £50 + 12.5% service charge = £56.25
    It's not a cheap dinner by any means, but I'd say that it's extremely reasonable for what they're doing.

    You’re my new hero. I also grew up with undiagnosed dyslexia and a rare spinal condition that literally eats the vertebrae and causes cracks like osteoporosis.
    I too sadly had to drop out a month short of my junior year.
    I always had a higher than average IQ, and could apply more “brain” than others, and I had difficulties with tests.
    I also found my calling in the restaurant industry. I also worked my way up from the bottom up to management and attempted to open my own restaurant. I have no ego and only have ever based my self worth on my efforts or labor. Sadly I don’t have any left because I can’t work anymore. It’s just too depressing to work on anything for 25 years just to see it die. I still hold on to it like the dream of winning the lottery.
    My spine required a 20 screw and 2 rod implant from my collarbone to my bellybutton. I haven’t been able to work but refuse to give up my dream. I only could be an owner at this point, nobody would accept my physical limitations, needing to lay down for a time to stand up again.
    Im happy to see your restaurant, it’s similar to my dream. I’m also grateful that I got to see someone like me, living my dream, successfully without the handouts everyone else seems to get, but never us.
    I wish you the best, and if I’m ever in the UK, I’ll make it a point to see your place. Also if you ever happen to come to New London in New England, I’d like to meet you! (Notice the brainstorming session our settlers had in the naming process huh?!?)

    To all the people about to comment ‘but the restaurant isn’t vegan so the zero waste isn’t effective’ (because having watched many videos like these, I know the comments are coming):
    Veganism is not the be all and end all to our climate/ecological crisis. Yes, eating less meat is important. But it’s how we source our food and how we deal with all of the food waste which we produce that is important.
    We produce more than enough food to feed the world currently. This is a beautiful example of how we can use food without producing waste, thus leaving more food for third world countries. Also, it shows that plastic and endless unnecessary packaging is not needed. Removing our one-use packaging and endless consumption is just as important as eating less meat.
    As for the sourcing of food, eating only sustainable line-caught fish and free range grass-fed meat are the changes we need to make, not ‘everybody go vegan’.
    I’m a zoology/ecology student. I can give you many examples of how a vegan world will not be the optimal solution to our ecological crisis. If you want those examples, comment down below :)
    Thank you for the beautiful video. This is the sort of positive attitude people need to have :)

      If you have to grow food to raise and feed an animal, when you could give that food to a human, then you're already creating a system less efficient.
      That said, I'm not going to ridicule people for being addicted to animal products. I've smoked cigarettes and know what it's like to be hooked on something.
      I'd just be relieved to see people admit it's mostly just that.
      "Zero waste" is technically an inaccurate term, because the only thing truly that way is going back to nature, abandoning technology and letting natural selection reduce the population.
      Most people won't do that, and I don't blame them.
      The biosphere has had a long run, but I can't wait for it to be over.

    • @solarpunkalana
      @solarpunkalana 5 років тому +44

      @@wuld7915 I agree with you - we shouldn't need to grow food to feed animals. It is a waste.
      Which is why we need to switch to grass-fed. We cannot digest grass ourselves. A lot of areas where grass grows would be inefficient to grow crops - hence it is more efficient to have grazing animals. In addition, it has been proven that many grazed areas produce much higher biodiversity than pesticide-sprayed crop fields would. (Just look at the prairies in North America - the only reason they are still there is due to cattle).
      Cattle and sheep can graze grass. Extra food waste, such as potato peels, we could feed to pigs (as it was in the olden days, before all of the over the top health-and-safety regulations came into play).

      I'd argue that being able to cultivate a 0 waste environment at home comes from a place of privilege. The actions of one home won't do Jack in the long run. It shouldn't be on the consumers to manage waste, but the people who create it in the first place (producers). As long as they keep making products to be wasted there will always be waste.
      But if you have the resources and the time sure! Shoot for the stars!

    So what were the answers to the problems? Cleaning without waste? Also it would be great to have some kind of forum, be it an app, a website or physical get-togethers for farmers and restaurant owners to cut out the middle men and reduce waste from packaging. Not to mention to encourage local produce in restaurants.

    Love this and also follow Doug's zero waste cooking school over the last year. For those interested, check Oliver Row The Urban Chef which was where he tried to run a London restuarant trying to source all his food by only travelling the London Tube Network - all local food.

    basically get food from farmers and compost the leftovers. only doable were its not illegal to have compost behind your building.lots restaurants try to have were they can feed extra to animals or compost only to be hit by regs and fines to were its cheaper/easier to trash it.only a few places can do it
