Enjoy Darwin’s Eclectic Food Scene With a New, Sustainable Twist
|
|
The Northern Territory’s capital city is well-known for an exciting food scene with gastronomical elements from all over Asia and the South Pacific being fused together by the region’s talented chefs and restaurateurs. And now, dozens of Darwin establishments beloved by foodies are participating in the new Plastic Free NT program in order to minimize dependence on single-use plastic and turn to compostable or reusable items. Saffron Restaurant in Parap has become the program’s first plastic-free champion, and many restaurants are expected to follow suit. Travelers should keep an eye out when exploring Darwin’s food scene to see which restaurants are joining this wonderful movement.
