today What makes a Gent of the most interesting and an example for many is its relationship with the environment, but especially with the special aspect of its inhabitants much pleasure-seeking, the city comes alive at night than during the day and is the city that has the highest number of quality restaurants in relation to its population. This peculiarity has praised the city of Gent , when it established the day of the week vegetarian. Every Thursday do not eat meat. From soup kitchens to bars and restaurants. One day a week meat-free is equivalent to the emission of CO2 18,000 cars.
A courageous decision by the City proposed by Leenaert Tobias, president of the Belgian EVA vegetarian, even if there is an obligation but only offer the 90% of the inhabitants of Ghent on Thursday joined initiative, 50% of restaurants offer vegetarian dishes. The idea was a strong stimulus for the chef of the restaurants that have invented their creativity with new dishes and new combinations, so that the plates are now presented on Thursday during the week.
Forget boring vegetable dishes , as some goat cheese in sheets of brick with tomato confit and mint pesto, red onion tarte tatin with envy with puff pastry with olive oil. The inhabitants of Ghent did not change the look of their character, not as they have become vegetarians, but on Thursday on behalf of the environment to give up eating meat, this and other decisions on the environment by the disposal of waste to roads have put the city as a examples of cities with a focus on the environment.
