A long time ago, a Belgian friend of mine interviewed Jon Bon Jovi for a popular magazine in Belgium. She told me he was a super nice guy. Well, after hearing about his latest project in New Jersey, I am pretty much convinced that he is.
He has set up a community restaurant called Soul Kitchen in Redbank, NJ that has no prices on the menu! If you don’t have the money to pay for your meal, you can volunteer in exchange for your meal.
People who do have the funds to pay for their meals, can pay 10$ or anything on top of that to cover someone else’s meal. I really love this concept. For the 10$, you get a three-course meal of nutritious American fare and you will most likely get to be seated next to people you don’t know. No reservations, no credit cards, just cash or volunteer time.
