“I absolutely love the Evogro. I love everything about it. It became obvious to me that the garnishes you use on your plates become so important and such a big part of your daily menus.”
“Our UK restaurants have been an advocate for Evogro for a long time, so it makes sense to bring that element to our Hong Kong site.”
“I just love the freshness of the herbs that our Evogro produces! Having the facility to grow our own ingredients in a sustainable way is wonderful.”
“The herbs grown in our Evogro add a defining touch to many of our dishes. They are picked to order and packed with flavour. They are also quick and easy to grow and the unit doesn’t take up much space, which is key in central London.”
“As the plants are still growing you can just snip them to order and then just tweezer them out so you’re not even touching them with your hands so you’ve got the optimum freshness, there’s no damage with packaging or heat.”
“The Evogro is an amazing addition to the kitchen and has become a real talking point amongst customers who regularly ask if they can see it.”
“ The final touch in most of our dishes, in line with the freshness, quality and sustainability that define our menu. Easy to grow, the Evogro system has become right away an indispensable and reliable part of our kitchen operation”.
“When I first saw Evogro I thought this is the next level. It’s the ultimate solution to grow some very unique herbs and have them fresh all the time. And help us reducing waste as we only hand pick as many we need, the rest keep growing.”
“I’ve been working with Evogro for four years. Fabulous service, super produce and incredible innovation!
“Global Bartending have worked with Evogro for over 2 years as a close partner in the luxury drinks sector. Evogro are one of the most forward thinking brands in this industry; bringing organic, sustainable and beautifully tasting produce in a space efficient way to future bars and kitchens.”
“What I love about Evogro is having the freshest herbs possible available at any time, cultivating them on site and cutting them straight onto the dish, it definitely gives a deeper connection to the herbs and to the dish. Fantastic team, fantastic product. I would (and do!) recommend Evogro to any chef I speak to.”
“I have been working with Evogro for over two years and could not imagine not having the growing facilities in my kitchen, we use it everyday in all aspects of service! Having freshly grown, bespoke herbs is great, specially when there is a such a brilliant support behind it.”
“I couldn’t feel more happy or privileged to have the opportunity to use an Evogro. Along with produce from our farm it allows us to serve food with integrity, freshness and vibrancy which just simply cannot be purchased from the marketplace with the same quality. Given the option this piece of equipment will always remain as an essential part of our kitchens here at the Woolsery project “.
“I have been using the Evogro system for over 3 years now and it really has become part of my creative process for creating my menus. I know what my herbs, salad leaves and microgreens will look like when I sow them so I can visualise my dishes. I have a constant supply of fresh herbs right in my kitchen, so I know I am serving the freshest, most flavoursome and nutritious herbs every day”.
“We always look for the best ingredients possible. The Evogro system is a great asset, particularly in a development kitchen, because you can have an extensive range of herbs constantly available. If we’re working on a dish and think ‘what if we added this particular fresh herb’, we can get it from the cabinet, and we know it will be in peak condition.”
