A vegan restaurant has gone zero waste in Berlin!
A vegan restaurant has gone zero waste in Berlin! 05.08.19 Frea is Germany’s first plant based, zero waste restaurant located in Mitte, Berlin. They have focused on generating as little trash as possible, and even the furnishings were chosen with sustainability and environmental awareness in mind. During the construction of the restaurant, many items were wrapped in plastic. They collected all the plastic, sent it to a company that melted it all down, and have now hung the piece of art on their wall. Most of their furnishings came from E-Bay classified ads, and the 8 lampshades above the bar is made of mycelium from a fungus that grows in the shape of a lamp. They minimize waste by making everything themselves, whether it’s their own drinks, bread, pasta, butter or even hazelnut milk. Thei
