Three Queen Anne quick-serve restaurants are participating in Seattle Public Utilities’ Green Eats Week program, a week-long promotion through their food and compost program that highlights several Seattle-area eateries that are implementing customer collection of leftover and compostable and recyclable ware and packaging. “It’s not garbage anymore,” the organizers said in a press release this week.

The program kicked off this past Wednesday, October 21 when a group of hungry middle schoolers were served a fully green seven-course meal from the participating restaurants at the Pier 54 Ivar’s. Everything on the table, from the table cloths to cupcake wrapper was fully compostable, recyclable or re-useable.

In Queen Anne, Caffe Vita, Macrina and Pagliacci Pizza will be offering at least one menu item using fully compostable service ware for the rest of the week-long promotion. Diners who purchase one of the Green  Eats Week items though Wednesday, October 28 will receive a coupon for Cedar Grove Composting.
