As mentioned in the above video I really enjoy this restaurant. I have spent some time speaking to the owner and appreciate his outlook and enthusiasm. His excitement is not only pertaining to his restaurant, but also for doing his part to drive the market towards eating more organically and in turn driving the overall cost of purchasing organics down.
Gusto is the first USDA Certified Organic Restaurant in New York.
They are the first restaurant in the country to use 100% of its ingredients USDA Certified Organic.
PLUS Gusto is a Green Certified Restaurant certified by the Green Restaurant Association. Please see their 22 steps to go Green (they just now added Wind Energy and new water saving improvements)

Gusto also provides to it’s Guests 99% Pure water for free. They use a top notch Italian technology to purify New York’s water (one of the best in the country) and run their water through a UV lamp that kills all the bacteria…Gusto uses this pure water to cook absolutely everything and to drink.. (they are completely against bottled water because in their opinion “it is such a tremendous waste that makes no sense at all”

I have spoken to Alberto and he would like it if you would…
“Please comment with your feedback about how to improve our concept because our vision is to bring Organics into the mainstream, a task that can only be done with your support and the help of the community.” - Alberto
What do you think about Organic ingredients? Do you prefer to eat them already? do you wish they were more affordable? is it all a crock s&*!?
Alberto has promised to check the comments in this post and participate in the conversation…
