Andō embodies a profound commitment to sustainability, seamlessly integrating ethical practices at the core of its operations. We are immensely proud to have been awarded Three Stars, the highest standard, from the Sustainable Restaurant Association (SRA), a true recognition for our efforts behind the scenes over the past two years.
Since the addition of General Manager Nico Bailez @nicobailez, drawing on his previous experience at Azurmendi Restaurant, the team has embraced valuable sustainable practices. The sourcing team cultivates direct relationships with suppliers, ensuring that key ingredients – like Rainforest Alliance-certified coffee, chocolate, and responsibly line-caught wild fish — are sourced with care and responsibility. This dedication extends to minimising food waste through repurposing ingredients into nourishing staff meals, alongside ongoing developments in innovative composting solutions and waste tracking systems. Acknowledging the vital role of social sustainability, Andō also dedicates time each month to serving hot meals to vulnerable communities in Hong Kong, reinforcing its commitment to making a meaningful social impact.
