Eating together connects. It’s a fun and easy way to meet new people or get to know each other better. Karma Kitchenn fits perfectly with the concept of my practice.

WHAT DOES A KARMA KITCHEN MEAL COST?
Who pays for my meal at Karma Kitchen?
At Karma Kitchen your meal has been paid for by someone who came before you. Since it’s a gift, you can’t pay them back — but you can pay-it-forward by making a contribution that will allow future guests to experience the same generosity. It is this circle of giving that allows Karma Kitchen to keep going.
GIFT ECONOMY AT KARMA KITCHEN
Imagine a restaurant where you pay-forward for the person after you. How long might the chain of generosity last? Karma Kitchen first opened in Berkeley on March 31st 2007, by several volunteers inspired to seed the value of a “gift economy”. It has now spread around the globe.
On May 6th 2022, the Karma Kitchens chain of gifts:
- has been able to continue for 99247 meals
- had volunteers contributing 80128 hours
These numbers are updated weekly on KarmaKitchen.org
MY FOREIGN EXPERIENCES WITH KARMA KITCHEN
KARMA KITCHEN IN AUROVILLE, INDIA – DECEMBER 2017
On December 17th, a big group of international and local people joined hands to create a Karma Kitchen in Auroville, India. It was an honour to be part of it.
“The food tastes like Love!” “Best meal I’ve ever had!” “The volunteer team was in FLOW!” These are some of the common sentiments after an epic Karma Kitchen experiment in Auroville. Within 2 hours on a sunny Sunday, the team welcomed over 120 guests to co-create the magic of deliciousness and generosity.

KARMA KITCHEN IN VIENNA, AUSTRIA – APRIL 2018
On April 26th, a big community of friends came together to create our first Karma Kitchen in Vienna, Austria! It was a big joy and succes! And in many ways, it was mini reunion of our time at Karma Kitchen in Auroville last December.
