La Betsch” crowdfunding
In March 2024 Margaux launches La Betscha table d’hôtes located in the former Ducati garage in Carouge. Four times a month, she offers a surprise tasting menu made exclusively from local produce. Conscientiously, she sources her ingredients directly from small, responsible local farms, focusing on their by-products and unsold produce. Her aim is to show diners what a totally transparent food chain can look like, to introduce them to products that are often overlooked, but rich in our terroir, and to introduce them to ethically-minded local producers and their production methods.
As an extension of this approach, she is writing a cookbook (the first in a series of four – one for each season). This first volume brings together all the recipes served at La Betsch in spring 2024. To finance part of the printing costs, Margaux is launching a crowdfunding campaign on SIG-Impactin the form of pre-orders for the book. Thanks to a great response, she reached 100% of her target in just one week! She still has three weeks to go: to cover all printing costs, and perhaps even take advantage of the buzz to generate as many pre-orders as possible.
