"I learned that the Breakfast Republic location in Mission Valley at 1570 Camino De La Reina is now offering dinner in the form of pre-made, pre-packaged comfort meals prepared for laid-off hospitality industry members. From 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. unemployed workers can come pick up a daily changing featured dish—examples include meatloaf, roasted chicken, lasagna, or shepherd’s pie. The program is expected to continue for the foreseeable future; a $10 contribution is suggested but the food will be free for those who can’t afford to pay, and patrons can also “pass it forward” by buying an extra meal for another customer." - Candice Woo
