"JR West Hotels Autumn SDGs Month" Enjoying delicious food that would otherwise be wasted! Developing sustainable initiatives related to food.

JR West Hotel Development Co., Ltd. (Shimogyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture; President and CEO: Masafumi Ise) will be implementing sustainable initiatives related to "food" at its hotels from GLOBAL GOALS DAY on September 25th (Wed) to October 31st (Thu), which includes Food Waste Reduction Day (October 30th). The period will be called "JR West Hotels Autumn SDGs Month" (hereinafter, Autumn SDGs Month).

Led by Kenichi Kashiwagi, Executive Chef of Hotel Granvia Kyoto, and devised by the executive chefs of the group hotels, JR West Hotels' original "Sustainable Soup Curry" was created using "wasteful ingredients" that would otherwise be discarded despite still being edible.

The spice used is wheat lees, a by-product of beer production at "Tango Kingdom Brewery (Kyotango City, Kyoto Prefecture)." Several spices, including cumin, are blended to complement the slightly bitter and fragrant flavor of the wheat lees. Whey, which contains protein and minerals, is used for the broth. The whey from "Milk Farm Sugiyama (Kyotanba Town, Funai District, Kyoto Prefecture)," which has low acidity and a milky richness, pairs well with the spices, resulting in a spicy and flavorful soup curry that stimulates the appetite.

This curry will be served at each hotel with different toppings, such as local vegetables, and will be available at breakfast buffets, lunch, and dinner starting September 25th (Wed).

JR West Hotels will continue to strive to achieve sustainable development goals through these initiatives. This autumn, we invite you to visit our hotels and raise your interest in sustainable food, while also enjoying the unique "sustainable soup curry" offered at each hotel.
