Chef Mario Batali has announced plans to adopt Meatless Monday in his restaurants starting Monday, May 10th. Batali's 14 restaurants - including Babbo, Del Posto, Esca, Lupa, Carnevino Italian Steakhouse and Osteria Mozza - will all feature at least two vegetarian entrees as part of his Meatless Monday promotion. These dishes will be designated on menus with his Meatless Monday logo.
"The fact is, most people in the U.S. eat way more meat than is good for them or the planet," says Batali. "Asking everyone to go vegetarian or vegan isn't a realistic or attainable goal. But we can focus on a more plant-based diet, and support the farmers who raise their animals humanely and sustainably. That's why I'm such a big believer in the Meatless Monday movement!"
