The New York City restaurant Eleven Madison Park is one of the best in the world. It has three Michelin stars. There are about 130 restaurants in the world with three stars from the famous French guide. A meal at Eleven Madison Park, for two people, with wine, costs about $1,000. And when the restaurant re-opens on June 10 after the year-long pandemic, it will not serve meat, fish, or other animal products. Owner and chef Daniel Humm recently told the U.S. radio broadcaster NPR that the restaurant will be “100 percent plant-based.” He said the way people eat meat is “not sustainable. And that is not an opinion. This is just a fact.” Humm also said he will not serve butter or cheese. He will, however, offer honey and milk to go with tea and coffee. Epicurious is a website that centers on food and cooking. In late April, the site announced that it will not write about beef or cooking instructions for meals with beef. The move, it said, is “an effort to encourage more sustainable cooking.” Raising cows for beef, the site said, led to more greenhouse gas than feeding other animals or planting vegetables for food. Researchers at Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana agree. In a 2019 study, they wrote that food production causes about 25 percent of the world’s carbon pollution. They suggested that if Americans would eat chicken instead of beef for just one meal per day, they could reduce pollution by about half.
