I'm going to need the help of all of you. This is a concept that is needed in an area so massacred by meat consumption. I want to bring the difference and now is the time!

Finally Sardinha Fora da Lata will have its space. It will be in my city, Luso and in one of the most beautiful areas, Lago do Luso. Surrounded by green and peacefull nature, it is the ideal spot for this project to take shape.

A Slow Food restaurant concept that will focus on providing a gastronomic experience that emphasizes the values ​​of local, sustainable and traditional food. We aim to reconnect people with the origins of their food, promote regional culinary traditions and support small farmers and producers.

As part of this Slow Food context, we will therefore value:

Locally sourced ingredients. We will prioritize the use of organic, seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. We will forge relationships with nearby farmers, producers and artisanal producers to ensure the freshest, highest quality ingredients. So our philosophy will be farm-to-table. By working directly with local farmers and producers to source ingredients, we minimize the distance between garden and plate. With this approach we support the local economy, reduce the carbon footprint and ensure transparency in the food supply chain.

We will use traditional and artisan techniques in the kitchen such as fermentation, curing and slow cooking. Techniques that enhance the flavor and nutritional value of food, preserving culinary traditions.

Menus will be seasonal to reflect ingredient availability. This practice not only guarantees the freshness of the dishes, but also promotes biodiversity and a deeper connection to the natural environment.

Ethical and sustainable practices such as animal welfare, fair trade and sustainable agricultural practices. We will focus on vegetarian or vegan options and we will focus on minimizing food waste through creative menu planning and adopting composting in conjunction with the municipality.

One of our goals is to build community involvement by organizing events, workshops and partner visits to raise customer awareness of the importance of sustainable and local food. We will also be involved in charitable initiatives or support food-related education programs.

Relaxed dining experience. We want to encourage our future customers to slow down, savor their meals and enjoy the dining experience. The environment will be relaxed and welcoming, allowing people to connect with their food, people and the general environment.

Emphasis on quality and taste. Let's value taste and quality over speed. By allowing enough time for cooking and preparation, an effort will be made to create memorable and satisfying dining experiences that bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients.

Slow Food aims to promote a more conscious and sustainable approach to mealtime, promoting a connection between people, food and the environment.

About the author

Hello! My name is Luísa Ferreira, author and creator of the blog Sardinha Fora da Lata. Author of the cookbook "Ao Sabor da Natureza" with the support of Editora Leya. I am passionate about life, the art of cooking and photography. I am an enthusiastic chef and activist hidden behind pots who believe that the weapons to revolutionize the world and save the planet are in the kitchen.

I've wanted a space of my own for a long time to be able to receive and cook. This moment has finally arrived.

Budget and due dates

We already have the space, but we lack all the stuffing. From chairs to cooking pots and some kitchen machines. Basically, this value will be used to carry out small works, decorate and equip the space.

3000€ - For tables and chairs (We will try to reuse second-hand pieces)

€1000- Acquire plates, bowls, glasses and cutlery (We will opt for defective low-price materials)

2000€ - Kitchen utensils and machines

We expect to complete the acquisition of these goods by the beginning of August.
