One of my local food banks has a community dinner once a month. The food isn't anything to write home about, but it's free.
Using that phrase in writing always tickles my funnybone with its inherent self-contradiction ๐
Sometimes I think about how we might make a public dining hall that people would choose to eat at, rather than go as a last resort. Sort of how U.S. public housing is dumpy while some European social housing is actually desirable.
