Descripción de contraportada

"Why is institutional food so bad when it could, and should, be so good? With hard-won insights and deep commitment, Joshna Maharaj takes us on a mouth-watering tour of what our collective food future might be. Her vision points the way to how we can put the hospitality back in hospital food and the generosity into a new generation of socially produced acts of care." -- Raj Patel, author of Stuffed and Starved: The Hidden Battle for the World Food System "A passionate and insightful analysis born of many years on the ground. The writing is an inspiring call to action to restore dignity and deliciousness coupled with a large dose of hospitality to our institutional dining experience. I'll be doing my bit."-- Jamie Kennedy, chef Good food generally doesn't arrive on a tray, but Chef Joshna Maharaj knows that institutional kitchens can produce good, nourishing food, because she's been making it happen over the last fourteen years in hospitals, a university, and a community food centre. She's determined to bring health, humanity, and hospitality back to institutional food, while also building sustainability, supporting the local economy, and reinvigorating the work of frontline staff. Take Back the Tray is part manifesto, part memoir from the trenches, and a blueprint for reclaiming control from corporations and brutal bottom lines. The need is clear, the time is now, and this revolution is delicious.
