Throughout history, food is often tied to culture, religion and identity, but one tradition has transcended these boundaries: the Sikh practice of langar, where the community kitchen of a gurdwara serves meals to people – irrespective of religion, gender, economic standing or ethnicity – for free.
Often, these kitchens are maintained and serviced by Sikh community volunteers.
