Zest is garden inspired. That means we are looking to the vegetable kingdom when we conceive these dishes. After all, vegetables are the one thing all diets agree on, and the key to the vibrance we seek.
Zest is nutritious food, with globally influenced flavor profiles. Zest is culturally intentional, meaning we are thinking of the familiar dishes our neighbors love, and then elevating them just a bit for the fun of it. We believe that food is medicine, but so is pleasure.
Zest is produced in the kitchen of Feed Louisville, by our team of restaurant chefs who now cook for the unhoused community daily. All of the proceeds from the sale of Zest products go to support our work.
