Osteria Mario Collaborates with Duo Gastrobar to Introduce New Zero Waste Specials Menu
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, 22 FEB 2024:– Osteria Mario, the family-favourite Italian restaurant in Dubai Hills and Dubai Marina, is excited to announce its latest sustainability initiative with the launch of a zero-waste specials menu in partnership with Duo Gastrobar. This innovative menu is available from February and combines Osteria Mario’s commitment to sustainable dining with quality produce while uterlising all parts of ingredients in the new menu.
In a challenge to create something new using mainly existing ingredients and offcuts, the zero-waste specials feature delicious dishes inspired by European flavours. From Focaccia Bread with coffee butter to Broccoli pate, Potato chips with salmon caviar, Risotto with shrimp, and Carrot Cake with mascarpone and seabuckthorn, each dish promises a burst of flavour with every bite. The menu includes two new drinks, non-alcohol Mulled wine with pomegranate and Basil spritz.
“As we approach one year since our launch, we challenged our chefs to create six new dishes and are thrilled to introduce a new zero waste specials menu in collaboration with Duo Gastrobar”, says Henrik Winther, Founder of Osteria Mario. “This collaboration reflects our unwavering commitment to sustainability while continuing to offer an affordable and high-quality dining experience to our guests. We hope this partnership will inspire fellow hospitality brands to collaborate and get creative to encourage sustainable dining.”
Diners at Osteria Mario can enjoy the zero-waste menu as separate dishes alongside the existing menu or opt for the set menu priced at AED 190 per couple. The thoughtfully curated menu promises something new, combining fresh and healthy ingredients with eco-conscious cooking.
Food waste and production are two of the largest contributors to environmental damage so by coming together Osteria Mario and Duo hope to inspire other restaurants to get creative with sustainability in their kitchens too.
