The vegan kitchen took on an advisory role for the restaurant set-up in the last few weeks and was also invited as a guest on the evening of the pre-opening:-)

There were live music interludes.

…And a very successful 4-course dinner (menu above).

The risotto with pumpkin and apple was topped with Maronni crunchies (by Aris) and tasted delicious.

Christian Zucol (left in the picture), the host and career changer, introduced his kitchen team with great linguistic skill and elegance and also gave an exciting speech.

Jana Gemperle brought the whole raw food spirit to the restaurant concept, but will be emigrating to New York in 5 weeks due to an unbeatable offer.

The recipes remain for the fall and winter menu and the Sanus Viventium is therefore still looking for reinforcement in the kitchen: it should be an all-rounder, certainly with a completed cooking apprenticeship and preferably vegan, of course;-)

Nothing works without a smiling kitchen assistant…

Of course, friendly service staff are also a must, otherwise who would bring the delicacies to the tables?

Finally, here is a picture of the great kitchen team: May they live high and healthy, three times high, healthy, high, healthy, high, healthy:

Sanus Viventium (live healthy)!

Opening of the first vegan restaurant in Switzerland in 2010

The opening of the new and first vegan restaurant “vegan kitchen and bakery” at Müllerstrasse 64 in 8004 Zurich by Lauren Wildbolz was a long time ago.

Lauren Wildbolz was a blogger for a long time and the head chef at the new vegan restaurant in Zurich, the vegan kitchen & bakery.

Before that (2007/2008), she worked as a vegetarian cook in a juice store in Zurich’s old town and became a vegan with even more depth in 2008. This change inspired her to open Switzerland’s first vegan restaurant in Zurich in November 2010.

The vegan kitchen & bakery was then sold to the Soyana company and the vegan restaurant with vegan ice cream (the Vegeglanteria) is still located at Müllerstrasse 64, now called The Sacret.

Lauren Wildbolz is no longer involved in the new vegan restaurant, but is very happy that it is still vegan and cooked with organic food: The vegan buffet over lunch is highly recommended! Below you can see a video from that time: The Star TV report from January 27, 2011 about the newly opened vegan restaurant Vegan Kitchen And Bakery in Zurich.

Minimizing meat consumption by just a fifth of the current level!

The new study by the Universities of Hohenheim and Göttingen examined the effects of reduced meat consumption on global agricultural prices and global food production,
The result is amazing:

A 19% reduction in meat consumption in industrialized countries would not only lead to a global reduction in meat production of 2.5% and a reduction in the world market price for meat. The lower demand for animal feed and the general decline in consumption could also lead to a fall in prices for other products such as grain. Poor countries in particular benefited from these price reductions.
Minimizing meat consumption by just a fifth of the current level would therefore appear to be a more than effective means of transforming the global agricultural sector and improving the global food situation.

world_hunger_mosambique

“70 to 80 percent of the world’s agricultural land is used for fattening, but only contributes 17 percent of the world’s food in terms of calories:If the citizens of the USA alone were to reduce their meat consumption by just 10 percent each year, the food saved could feed around 60 million people worldwide. Currently 900 million people are starving, every 7 seconds a child under the age of ten starves to death…”
