Meatless Mondays at Mille Fleurs

On Mondays it’s Meatless

The Mille Fleurs Restaurant led the way in Jamaica and introduced their tasty Meatless Mondays in 2010 as a way of reducing carbon emissions and highlighting their local farm producers.

On Mondays at the Mille Fleurs Restaurant we offer a tasty, completely vegetarian menu in keeping with the international Meatless Monday campaign which we were the first to introduce to Jamaica.

When dealing with issues as big as global warming, or personal health issues, it’s easy to feel helpless. But the small changes we make every day can have a tremendous impact. That’s why this Meatless Monday resolution is important. Together we can better our health, the animals and the environment, one plate at a time. Going meatless one day a week can reduce the risk of chronic preventable conditions as well as reducing methane emissions that contribute to global warming.

Celebrity supporters of Meatless Mondays range from famed chef Mario Battali who offers Meatless Monday menus at all 14 of his restaurants to other notable supporters including Sir Paul McCartney, Al Gore, Oprah Winfrey, James Cameron, Russell Simmons, and Simon Cowell.
