The “à table” in “RED à table” is a French word that means the beginning of a homey, warm, and fun time, as in,” The food is ready, Come on, everyone,gather around the table.” a food producer Fumiko Kono, and six RED U-35(*2) finalists gathered around a table to create a menu with various perspectives, such as reducing food loss and passing on food culture, in addition to deliciousness. In addition to deliciousness, the meal will be designed to reduce food loss and pass on food culture. The chefs also talked about their commitment to the menu and the secrets behind the development of the menu. In addition, an original video featuring the chefs’ menus will be shown on board.
