The Common Kitchen

The langar of a gurdwara “serves meals to all free of charge, regardless of religion, caste, gender, economic status, or ethnicity,” Wikipedia notes. “People sit on the floor and eat together.” Guru Amar Das required people to “dine together irrespective of their caste and class.”

The kitchen is run by volunteers “doing seva.”
