Braised beef all night, green salad and apple crumble, this was the menu concocted on Wednesday by the team at Le Verre Volé in the 10th arrondissement in Paris. A menu concocted for the caregivers of the Baujon hospital: "I have a tool, a kitchen, a network of buddy restaurateurs, market gardeners and producers, and I wanted to be useful" explains Thomas Vicente, one of the bosses of Stolen Glass .
“Everything is fresh, seasonal, cellophane free and nothing is frozen! "Proudly recalls Marc Longa, the boss of the Gravity bar who came to lend a hand to prepare these 85 meals. “Every week, we have trucks coming to deliver and they have tons of goods that they are ready to give us for free so that they don't throw it away. Meals are mainly made with his donations, ”he says.
