Restaurant Nora is America's first certified organic restaurant, located in Washington, D.C..[citation needed]
Contents
Certification
To gain the certification, Chef Nora Pouillon proved that at least 95 percent of the ingredients used—including meats, vegetables, dairy, flour, coffee, chocolate, and oils—were from certified organic farmers and suppliers.[1] As a result, the restaurant's menu changes seasonally.[2]
Commitment to sustainable agriculture
Grass-fed beef, free-range chickens, creamy hand-made goat cheeses, juicy heirloom tomatoes, fresh picked wild mushrooms, and local applewood smoked trout are just some of the ingredients prepared seasonally and are produced by certified organic farmers and growers that share Chef Nora's commitment to sustainable agriculture.[3]
Famous guests
In January 2010, President Barack Obama held a surprise birthday party for First Lady Michelle Obama at the restaurant.[4][5] Restaurant Nora has held lunches, dinners and events for dignitaries, congressional members and White House administrations, and was a favorite of Hillary Clinton.[6]
