Freddy's has confirmed one area of responsible practice so far, local and direct sourcing. The kitchen works with local products from farmers and producers in and around Bruges, and the menu names where some of it comes from.
The pork ribeye is Brasvar, raised at Nevele on a farm that prepares its feed from local and self grown ingredients, fertilises its soil with its own manure and turns the remainder into green electricity. The crab is landed from the North Sea and the draught pils is brewed in West Flanders.
