Seva Cafe in Ahmedabad, India is redefining the idea of a fine dining experience. Operated on the principle of a “gift economy,” this restaurant serves food at no charge. Diners enjoy meals that have been paid for by those who came before them. And what patrons contribute is a matter entirely up to them. “You pay from your heart,” explains one of the many volunteers who cook, clean and serve at the restaurant. “The idea is to promote the idea of giving.”
