This zero food waste cafe in Hong Kong is trying to tackle the financial hub’s escalating trash problem by providing meals that are fully compostable, such as vegetables and herb flatbreads, and packaging that is turned into fertiliser

HONG KONG - A zero food waste cafe in Hong Kong is trying to tackle the financial hub’s escalating trash problem by providing meals that are fully compostable, such as vegetables and herb flatbreads, and packaging that is turned into fertiliser.

Bobsy Gaia, the plant-based cafe’s 55-year-old founder, said it was a significant milestone to become 100% compostable with all packaging as of last year. Although restaurants in Hong Kong have remained mostly open despite the coronavirus crisis, takeaways have soared due to diners being hesitant to eat out and health restrictions currently in place that prevent more than four people socialising.

The extra investment in capital is worth it, he says, adding that change is coming with a shift in awareness, especially in the younger generation.
