In spite of the challenges that restaurants have been facing during the coronavirus pandemic, this restaurant decided to lend a helping hand by becoming a soup kitchen.
La Morada, a Mexican restaurant in the Bronx, first opened in 2009 and has been recognized by the Michelin Guide for its authentic Oaxacan food.
In April, the family-run restaurant decided to open its doors to people in need, including the elderly, disabled, unemployed and those who aren’t able to cook.
La Morada makes about 650 free meals a day through its soup kitchen while continuing to serve paying customers. Volunteers unload boxed meals prepared at La Morada, on Wednesday, Oct.
