“Lighthouse is a farm to table neighborhood restaurant serving modern Mediterranean food while pushing the boundaries for better environmental and social practices. We love Mankai for many reasons, but mostly for its nutritional value and health benefits. Knowing that we can deliver our guests (especially the vegetarians and vegans) dishes packed with bioavailable protein, vitamins and minerals feels great and is totally aligned with our values.Mankai is also a wonderful ingredient because of the texture it lends to sauces and dishes. It creates a rich and mouth-watering sensation that makes dishes more satisfying and satiating. Lastly, the sustainable way in which Mankai is grown makes it even more appealing. In our view, caring for human beings must include caring for the planet at large and being aware of our place in the food chain and the environment.”
