Bæst, Christain Puglisi’s Italian-inspired restaurant and its sister bakery Mirabelle, was named Food Made Good Business of the Year at the Royal Horticultural Halls’ Lindley Hall, London, on 5th October 2017.

The Copenhagen restaurant which is certified organic and sources much of its fresh produce from its own farm, received the award from Raymond Blanc OBE, President of the Sustainable Restaurant Association (SRA). The award was one of 17 presented by Blanc and SRA Vice President Prue Leith, at a special ceremony at the central attended by over 250 good restaurants.

The Food Made Good Awards reward restaurants, and food service businesses, whose extraordinary accomplishments in the last year have driven progress in the industry and demonstrated that all food can be made delicious, ethical and sustainable.

Customers at Bæst, in the fashionable Nørrebro area, can enjoy some of the 350 varieties of fruit and vegetables grown on the nearby farm. The pizzas feature mozzarella freshly made in-house, every day, using milk from the farm’s 15-cow herd and salami prepped by the chefs using pork from a local free-range drove. To complement the Italian theme, the chefs also use the milk to make ice cream.

The ceremony itself was hosted in the Royal Horticultural Halls’ natural light-filled Lindley Hall. The versatile Lindley Hall and Lawrence Hall now play host to prestigious contemporary events, from fashion shows to weddings, art exhibitions, car auctions, big-brand conferences and major entertainment artistes.
