The Albert chain really scored this time. It showed that even in these difficult times it is possible to provide very cheap food. In doing so, he simply took advantage of the opportunity everyone has and, in his own way, emphasized the fact that food doesn’t have to be expensive if it isn’t wasted.
An innovative way of cooking
Albert has now opened a new canteen where he sells lunches for only thirty crowns. At the same time, this is a price for which you will not even buy lunch for schoolchildren for a long time. However, the employees of this chain can eat very well for this figure.
How is it possible? The company simply started cooking with leftovers that would otherwise have gone to the Food Bank or even thrown away. However, this is how they find great use.
It is clear that Alberta’s new strategy is moving in the right direction to reduce food waste. He also opened the first zero-waste store in the Czech Republic in Nové Butovice. Modern technologies are used here to save energy, extend the life of fruit and vegetables, or sell boxes with surpluses.
Very tasty menu
It was also here that Albert’s new Cantína grew differently. In reality it is nothing more than a company canteen, where for now only the employees of the chain can have lunch. It is cooked here with leftovers from the shop and the workers here have literally fallen in love with it. No wonder, they wouldn’t eat this cheaply and well anywhere else.
Everything is actually surprisingly simple. In the morning, the chef finds out what’s left of the previous day and is tasked with preparing a menu for it. The field of activity of him is wide, most often he gets his hands on chicken or beef, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers or cucumbers.
The advantage of this canteen is also the fact that the chefs here cook very creatively and try to invent new things. So there is no danger of the sauce with dumplings and cutlet with potatoes being eaten every day, no matter how they get their hands on it, because people ask for them. However, one of the three meals is always vegetarian.
