”Sustainability is very important to organisers and all the strong effort Gothenburg Restaurant Association Taste of Gothenburg has put in regarding environmental certification is a major step in the right direction.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION FOR GREENER AND GREATER FOOD
Göteborg & Co works with the City of Gothenburg to develop Gothenburg into a sustainable meeting and event destination. Taste of Gothenburg therefore requires that all members actively work with these important issues and that they work for having some sort of environmental certification. There are several approved ways to become certified. The green symbol indicates which restaurants are certified so far.
GUIDE MICHELIN
In Gothenburg six restaurants have been honoured with a star in the prestigious restaurant bible Michelin Guide. For a city of Gothenburg’s size, it is unique with so many top restaurants and the awards have certainly set the city on the map.
