The World Peace Cafe is unlike any other restaurant in Atlanta. Built with donations and by volunteers, and owned and operated by Kadampa Meditation Center Georgia, all of their profits go to support meditation classes and special events designed to help others find peace of mind.
Most of the people who cook and serve their excellent food are volunteers who believe in the premise that
“Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible.” — Ven. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Peaceful communities and nations begin with peaceful people. Peaceful people have peaceful minds. The mission of the World Peace Cafe and its owner, Rameshori Center, is to help others find a peace arising from within their own mind. When our mind is peaceful, we are happy and we can make others happy. When our mind is unpeaceful, we are unhappy and cannot make anyone happy.
Just don't get the Tofu Steak and Fries when you visit, right?! :) Great restaurant though - everything else is delicious. I love their vegan chocolate almond cake too. Next time, I'm trying the burger!
ReplyDelete:-) I agree, the Tofu Steak is not marinated much and lacks "juiciness" and flavor unfortunatelly. But if you cover it with some sauce or ketchup it is OK ;-)
DeleteIt sounds like such a wonderful place! I love what it stands for AND how good the food looks! I think I'd have to order those Orange Cranberry Pancakes if I ever get to go :-)
