Casbah achieves Gold Plate designation as a Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant

October 21, 2015 by Ginette Walker Vinski

Congratulations to Casbah in demonstrating its restaurant sustainability performance! Earlier this week, this East End establishment earned the Gold Plate designation in the Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant program, administered by Sustainable Pittsburgh.

A Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant demonstrates commitment to managing the social and environmental impacts of its operations as central to its strategy for business success. In earning the Gold Plate, Casbah is acknowledged for its efforts in addressing areas such as energy efficiency, water use, healthy dining, sourcing responsibly, being active in the community, and providing a workplace that fosters employee growth. It is the first restaurant of the Big Burrito Restaurant Group to earn designation, with others soon to follow.

Details on how Casbah is addressing these areas can be found on its profile through the Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant website at www.sustainablepghrestaurants.org.
