Our commitment to quality goes beyond the kitchen at Fortu Restaurant. We believe that the best dishes begin with the finest ingredients. This is why we place a high priority on sourcing local products. We are committed to supporting local farmers and sustainable practices, which not only provides the best quality to our guests but also benefits our community and environment.

Commitment to quality

Fresh, high-quality food is at the core of our culinary philosophy. We know that the taste and integrity of our food is dependent on the quality of raw materials. This commitment motivates us to search for the best local suppliers of our ingredients in order to ensure that each meal we serve meets high standards.

Sustainability Practices

Sustainability is an important factor in our decisions about sourcing. We have a commitment to reduce our environmental footprint through partnerships with farmers and suppliers that share our commitment to sustainable practice. It includes using organic farming methods and reducing pesticides, as well as promoting soil health. We support sustainable agriculture to preserve the environment and provide our guests with delicious food that has been responsibly produced.

Supporting Local Farmers

Our sourcing strategy is centered on supporting local farmers. We are committed to building strong relationships with the local agricultural community in order to provide a constant supply of seasonal, fresh ingredients. We work closely with local farmers to ensure that we get the freshest produce possible, which results in delicious and nutritious dishes.

These partnerships have also a positive effect on the local economies. We support local family farms and businesses by sourcing locally. This helps to maintain the vitality of the community. Local sourcing reduces the impact of long-distance transport on the environment, which is another way we are committed to sustainability.

Seasonal Menus

Our menu changes with the seasons to reflect the best of the local produce throughout the year. Our guests will be introduced to the different flavors of the seasons through this approach. Our seasonal menus showcase the bounty of local farms, from spring’s tender leaves to autumn’s hearty roots.

Our chefs plan their menus based on the seasons and work closely with local farmers to learn about them. We can highlight lesser-known and unique ingredients through this collaboration, giving our guests an exciting dining experience rooted in local traditions.

Traceability & Transparency

We believe our guests should know the origin of their food. We prioritize transparency and traceability in our sourcing. We are proud of sharing the stories and insights from the producers and farmers we work with. This connection helps us to appreciate the food and people behind it.

Ethical Sourcing

We are also committed to ethical sourcing. Fair labor practices and animal welfare are important. Our suppliers are committed to these values and we work with them to provide our guests with high-quality food that has been ethically produced.

For example, our seafood is sourced only from fisheries which prioritize ethical and sustainable practices. This ensures that we are contributing to the health of marine eco-systems. Our meat and poultry are sourced from farms that follow humane standards. This reflects our commitment to ethical sourcing.

Community Engagement

Local sourcing is important to us, and it extends well beyond the restaurant. We engage our community actively through events, farmers markets, and education initiatives. We hope to encourage others to make conscious food choices by promoting local, sustainable food systems.

We work with local organizations and schools to promote agricultural awareness and education. We help to build a more resilient and stronger food system by fostering connections between local farmers and the community.

Fortu Restaurant’s commitment to sustainability, quality and community support is evident in our approach to sourcing local ingredients. We ensure that our dishes are of the highest quality by prioritizing ethical, local and sustainable practices.

Fortu Restaurant invites you to celebrate the flavors of the region. Each meal is prepared with respect and care for the land and the people who supply our ingredients.
