More Than Just Words – A Proven Commitment for Sustainability
Restaurants that take part in The Green Cook commit to reducing their environmental impact and following responsible practices. This commitment is guided by a clear framework and verified through an independent certification process — turning ambition into action and making progress visible.
Guests Care About More Than Just Taste
Today’s guests expect more than good food — they want to know what’s behind it. Restaurants account for a significant share of resource consumption and emissions in the food industry. This puts them in a key position to drive positive change. To attract conscious customers, it’s not just about doing good — it’s about making those efforts credible.
A Transparent Assessment for Real Impact
The Green Cook certification assesses impact friendlyness across five key areas — guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals. It helps restaurants understand their current impact, take action where it matters most, and track progress over time. Certification is based on measurable actions and verifiable results — making responsibility tangible and comparable.
Together, We’re Making Sustainability the new Standard in Hospitality
Sustainability isn’t just a goal at Papillon — it’s part of everyday decisions. Partnering with The Green Cook helped us measure where we stand and take the next steps to do even better.
