Haofood, a startup creating peanut protein-based alternative chicken, and five restaurants in Shanghai partner to offer peanut-based chicken via food science and technology
“We want to unite the past, present, and future,” said Haofood’s CEO, Astrid Prajogo. “The past being traditional menus by dedicated chefs, the future being plant-based meat, and the present being customers’ experiences today.”
The five restaurants using Haofood’s products to revitalise their menu are Green Friday, Topolino, STYX, Wrap and Roll, and The Pawon. The CEO describes one of Haofood’s aims in working with these restaurants as being part of their mission to make eating good food forever possible.
“We all know eating meat is less sustainable, but it’s an important part of so many traditional menus,” she explains. “So plant-based meat is one of the ways to preserve this because we can continue our culinary heritage but also respect the Earth,” she added.
