Alessio making pizza the good old fashioned way...
Like so many others, Lotte & Alessio lost their jobs as Chefs during COVID19. As many restaurants were forced to shut, this left kitchens collecting dust.
"Jobless Cooks + Empty Kitchens = Opportunity!"
Let's try this out!
We are united in our shared belief that cooking food should be as sustainable as it is tasty, nutritious, and beautiful.
We are launching from Sandhi House, and are looking for more Chefs & Restaurants in the Lisbon, Sintra & Mafra region to join!

Agree To Our Social Contract
Great Food Is BaselineTasty, nutritious, beautiful food made with love.
BalanceUsing organic, local, and non processed food as much as possible.
UpCycleSeparate, save and transport food scraps to compost areas to feed the next round of vegetable production.
Energy ControlUnplug unused kitchen tools, don't leave appliances on longer than necessary, and use natural heating methods when possible.
Impact ReportingMust identify for each use of the kitchen an overview of sustainability practices used. From what products were package free to where you left your food scraps to be composted.
How We Work
Focused on sustainable practices and collaborative efforts to create tasty, beautiful, and nutritious food that is good for you AND the planet!
- Reservation FocusedTo prevent food waste, our chefs only buy what they will use!
For this reason, we focus on themed activities, events, and workshops at the locations where we rent kitchens.
We hire our chefs to cater for these events; reservations must be in at 18:00 the day before the event. - Pick-Up & DeliveryChefs preparing food for our events will also prepare food for pick-up & delivery on event day.
Again, to fight food waste, all orders must be made the day before by 18:00. - Sustainability CertificateAny company choosing KitchCoLab to cater for lunches, events, etc. will receive a Sustainability Certificate.
It will report all the efforts & practices invested by our cooks to produce your meals. From composting food scraps to what local farmers they supported by purchasing local.
Great to strengthen your Corporate Social Responsibility, and support efforts to reduce the impact of Covid-19 on the local economy.
ATTENTION! We're Adjusting Our Concept, and Looking For Chefs!
People are increasingly considering the impact of food on their health and how their shopping habits impact the planet; but, are struggling to balance their concerns due to a lack of money and time.
Kitch CoLab's concept is to unite chefs under one roof to prepare packaged (in glass containers) meals for delivery and pickup.
- Home batch cooking takes people several hours of their precious weekend time.
- Packaged food from supermarkets traditionally is an easy way to have a quick meal, but almost all packaged food is heavily processed and transported over great distances. This negatively impacts people's health and our planet.
- Buying food from smaller local shops is expensive and time consuming because people usually need to go to multiple shops to get all that they need.
Kitch CoLab's concept is to unite chefs under one roof to prepare packaged (in glass containers) meals for delivery and pickup.
- Chefs prioritize using products that are produced locally, package-free, in season and organic as much as possible. #Healthy + #Sustainable
- Up to three chefs with different concepts will share the kitchen on 1 day to prepare the ordered meals. They will be able to collaborate and buy in bulk in order to save money which the savings will be passed down to the consumer #Economical.
- Our customers will no longer have to spend several hours shopping at various local stores, preparing, AND doing dishes (we clean containers when returned!). #TimeSaving
Please, if you: - Love the idea & concept & want to stay informed about what's going on
- are interested being part of our community of Chefs prepping meals for our weekly drop-offs
- are a local farmer who has veggies to sell
- feel this is something you can work passionately on as a cofounder, and have experience with the restaurant industry

In solidarity with the healthcare workers, and other essential workers, we will not be organizing in-person events during the new lockdown in Portugal.
There is no mandatory "stay-at-home" order. However, they are urging people to stay home and we can not justify encouraging people to eat out.

The Mellow Kitchn
It should not be stressful to find and make food that is healthy, tasty, and good for the planet. It's all about balance. I love to cook for people how I cook for myself: beautiful, nutritious, and earth-friendly dishes.
