BENU SLOOW is there !

The first vegetarian-vegan "Rescued Food" restaurant in the Greater Region opens its doors in Esch-sur-Alzette!

The BENU kitchen team composes new innovative taste explosions every day from high-quality "rescued" food, complemented by aromatic local wild herbs, the finest spices and carefully selected ingredients! And not only that: all ingredients come from controlled ecological agriculture and, if possible, from local production. Everything fresh. Everything under the Slow-Food motto...
BENU SLOOW starts on 22.04.2023 with its Table d'Hôtes. Afterwards, BENU SLOOW opens as a (more or less ;) classic "à la carte" restaurant with a varied menu for every taste.

Why "Rescued Food"?

(Too) much fresh fruit and vegetable, that meets high quality and EU standards, never reaches the retail sector. Why? Because the shop always has to be full, even shortly before closing time. So a lot of goods are waiting to be bought while the new goods are already being delivered.

The "surplus" food is regularly disposed of...

Let yourself be surprised !

Discover BENU SLOOW in the new ecovillage BENU VILLAGE in Esch-sur-Alzette!

Old shipping containers, a dismantled door, surplus wood...

BENU SLOOW emerges from scratch, yet for its construction, dismantled materials from other building projects and leftover materials from businesses were used. As the first and central part of BENU VILLAGE, BENU SLOOW consistently focuses on circular economy, UpCycling and ZeroWaste. The BENU SLOOW restaurant is supported by the Œuvre Nationale de Secours Grande-Duchesse Charlotte.

The creation of the ecovillage BENU VILLAGE Esch is possible thanks to the generous support of the municipality of Esch-sur-Alzette! Other committed supporters are the Ministry of Environment, Climate and Sustainable Development and the Ministry of Economy.

We thank all our supporters for their great commitment!

As part of BENU VILLAGE, BENU SLOOW is more than a restaurant. It is rather a place of discovery, experience and encounter...

...between young and old, different people and cultures!

We are looking forward to seeing you!

BENU SLOOW starts in a first phase with the table d'Hôtes
from 22.04.2023 until 21.05.2023

Who is not familiar with this cosy concept from France, very close to the kitchen: the Table d'Hôtes, the table for invited guests.

In a first one-month phase, BENU SLOOW is exclusively introducing this table d'Hôtes, where 12 guests will find a comfortable seat right next to the participatorily built clay oven. Experience a gastronomical, cultural journey with melodies of wild aromatic herbs from our region, as well as taste explosions from the beverage cauldron. All this in a disruptive, artistic environment where the chef tells stories about the BENU SLOOW concept and lets you discover many details about the preparation of each course of our special menu. The shared tasting becomes a unique moment of well-being. Starter? Not sure. Main course? Maybe. How about dessert? Surprise! Just an excellent meal? Certainly not!

Price per person without drinks: 140€

Price per person with selected alcoholic beverages: 190€

Price per person with selected non-alcoholic beverages: 170€

Children up to 12 years of age, as well as persons in possession of a Kulturpass, receive a 50% discount on our experience menu. However, we do not offer a special children's menu.

The restaurant will follow in a second phase

As of 24.05.2023, we welcome you in our "à la carte" restaurant.
You can reserve your table in the restaurant by phone at +352 27 38 01-81 or via email info@benusloow.lu
