Food Waste Evokes Restaurant Owner’s Frown on Diners
Wafu, the Australian eaterie is more or less like a mother, complete with a twist. Any time diners don’t finish everything on their plates, they can be politely requested not to come back. There are other policies customers must adhere to.
Diners are asked to be mindful of the amount of food they order and to order just the right amount “in harmony with your appetite.”
The Wafu’s website asks diners to not waste a thing and to even think about sharing meals!
The under-current of this approach is ‘Japanese cuisine’ ‘guilt free’, or to put it another way: “Wafu is not just a restaurant, it is an extension of Yukako’s personal ethos toward nourishment and sustenance. Wafu is the expression of an ethical and spiritual commitment to food.”
