Restaurant ONA in the city of Ares rewarded after initially struggling to get funding to open its doors
A vegan restaurant in south-west France has won a Michelin star, the first for an establishment serving only animal-free products in France.
Claire Vallee runs the restaurant ONA – which stands for Origine Non Animale – in the city of Ares, near Bordeaux, which she launched in 2016 thanks to crowdfunding from supporters and a loan from a green bank.
