Testimonials

Resto Plateau was an incredibly welcoming and social space for me during a rough time. The organization helps us support one another and creates a beautiful community for mutual aid!

Bérengère

The sense of community that exists at Resto Plateau did me a lot of good. I’m happy to be a part of this ecosystem and to be smiling under my mask, cracking jokes with some customers and having conversations with them..

Hubert

My experience with Resto Plateau was rich and stimulating. I felt useful and was there to listen to people who needed help. I’ve rarely seen such a well-run organization where volunteers are supported from A to Z without being talked down to!

Thierry

I was thrilled to meet with the Resto Plateau team, both on the kitchen and courtyard side of things. After getting first-hand experience in portioning and chopping, I now see prepared meals in a totally new light.
