So All May Eat| 2mins

Focus Years: 2011 | Country: United States
Synopsis:
Organic food is often criticized for pricing out lower-income populations who can't afford to shop at boutique groceries or farmer’s markets. SAME Café owners Brad and Libby Birky have created a neighborhood restaurant where everyone can enjoy a great meal made of high quality ingredients, regardless of whether they can afford it. SAME is an acronym for "So All May Eat", and it refers to the pay-what-you-can system of the restaurant. The restaurant covers 75 percent of its total costs with what people put in the anonymous payment box, and the rest is covered by grants and individual donations. Because of the pay structure, the clientele at SAME is as diverse as you'll ever find in a sit-down restaurant: college students, homeless people, and families all eat together. It’s a beautiful example innovation and community building around something that everyone loves: good food.
