Arpège Embraces Plant-Based Cuisine
In a bold move, renowned French chef Alain Passard is transforming his iconic restaurant, Arpège, into a plant-based haven. This shift comes at a time when the European Union is contemplating a ban on meat-related terms in vegan products. Such regulations highlight the ongoing cultural and market tensions surrounding veganism and its terminology.
As the EU pushes for more stringent regulations on vegan labels, Passard’s decision to prioritize plants over meat at Arpège sheds light on the evolving landscape of culinary practices. This shift not only responds to consumer demand for more sustainable dining options but also challenges the regulatory framework that governs how vegan products are marketed. With these changes, Arpège positions itself at the forefront of the plant-based movement.
