Refettorio Gastromotiva

Refettorio Gastromotiva is a restaurant-school where students from Gastromotiva courses in Rio de Janeiro and renowned guest chefs cook, from Monday to Friday, 90 meals that are served to people in situations of social vulnerability, the Solidarity Dinners. For this, the project has the help of volunteers who do the salon service.

During the pandemic, we redesigned our operating model so that we could expand the amount of meals served by our organization and also to increase our presence in communities and places with a high concentration of vulnerable people.​

Currently, Refettorio Gastromotiva produces 1,300 meals a week in the form of hot meals, which are distributed in the central region of Rio de Janeiro with the help of partner projects.
