Soup for a cause this winter
Restaurant Associates is proud to partner with Cook for Good to bring a range of delicious, seasonal soups to menus across their sites. For every portion sold, 50p will be donated to Cook for Good 鈥 a not-for-profit organisation with a mission to make a difference.
The goal is to raise funds for this social enterprise while offering great-tasting, nutritious soups. It is a simple way for guests to enjoy their meal while contributing to a good cause.
Cook for Good does incredible work in the community. Based in King鈥檚 Cross, London, it runs programmes to connect local residents and businesses. These include a soup caf茅, food pantry, cookery classes, and community meals鈥攁ll funded by team-building events and corporate partners.
Restaurant Associates is proud to have supported Cook for Good since 2022 with chef Dan Batten teaching many of their residents essential cooking skills as well as supporting their new Soup for Good recipe book. The book features 50 soups, many of which, are Pantry favourites, with others donated by well-known cooks like Nigella Lawson, and sponsors, including our own Restaurant Associates chef.
Adam Thomason, Culinary Director at Restaurant Associates, says: "The Soup for Good book has been an inspiring project. It shines a light on seasonal vegetables and reducing food waste, which are key to today鈥檚 culinary world. Our chefs have contributed a recipe full of flavour, nutrition, and creativity. It鈥檚 wonderful to now bring these soups to our guests. Every portion sold supports a fantastic cause while delivering a great dining experience. It鈥檚 food with purpose."
鈥淲e are thrilled to be partnering with Restaurant Associates to bring our gorgeous Soup for Good soups to their restaurants. We know that sitting together to share a warm, nourishing bowl of food really brings people together; it鈥檚 at the heart of what we do at Cook for Good, through our food pantry and community kitchen. And as Restaurant Associates are giving us a donation for every soup sold, we鈥檒l be able to work even harder to tackle food insecurity and social isolation.鈥 Karen Mattison, CEO, Cook for Good.
