As Southern States Bus Migrants to Chicago, Service Workers Are Waiting With Hot Meals - Eater Chicago

"Over the last four months, the owner of Tandoor Char House has distanced himself from day-to-day operations at his three restaurants to focus on converting his River North location into a pantry of sorts, making culturally appropriate meals for the mostly South American migrants housed at police stations across the city. More than 14,000 migrants have arrived in Chicago over the last year or so. Sardharia and his team have distributed more than 250,000 meals, aided by mutual aid groups and other restaurants, transitioning from fried chicken and fries to arepas, empanadas, and more. Restaurants like Chicago’s Dog House, Cafe Bionda, and more have aided the effort." - Ashok Selvam
