Snail of Approval

Snail of Approval Logo

The “Slow Food Snail of Approval” is a symbol used by the Slow Food movement to designate food producers, restaurants, or food-related businesses that align with the principles of Slow Food. Slow Food is an international grassroots organization that promotes local, sustainable, and traditional food practices as an alternative to fast food and industrialized agriculture.

The Snail of Approval is awarded to establishments that prioritize qualities such as good, clean, and fair food production and consumption. This might include sourcing ingredients locally, supporting small-scale farmers and producers, using environmentally friendly practices, and preserving culinary traditions. The symbol serves as a way for consumers to easily identify businesses that share these values and support them through their patronage.

Slow Food Melbourne congratulates these local Snail of Approval awardees.
