BUFFALO, N.Y. — Big Big Table is getting closer to opening Buffalo’s first pay-as-you-can lunchtime restaurant.
The restaurant, a nonprofit corporation, is taking applications for a community and operations manager and a co-chef/kitchen manager, who will work with founder/chef Mandy Bailey and the board of directors to coordinate volunteers and paid staffers, with a goal of opening at 272 Hudson St. by late August.
The community cafe is part of the international One World Everybody Eats network and has modeled the Buffalo operation after a long-running restaurant in Denver, the SAME (So All May Eat) Café. Big Big Table will focus on addressing hunger, reducing food waste and building community.
