Can foreigners come?
Looks like a worthwhile experience.
There is a massive Vietnamese pho restaurant in Sydney where people eat from the same looking massive bowls and pretty much the same noodle soup. There is something fantastic about communal eating, especially when everyone is eating the same thing.
Any person and I repeat any person doesn't matter from where he/she belong or believe in can sit for a 'Langar' and enjoy that meal. All u have to do it cover your head with any piece of cloth and leave your footwear outside at the designated place
Purpose of Langar is not just feeding those who can't afford it. The prime purpose is to spread the message of equality. Bring people rich or poor, religious or atheist, black-brown or white, Sikh-Hindu-Muslim or Christian sitting together on same platform have the same meal cooked at the same kitchen...just imagine what a divine feeling it gives not just for those having it but even for those serving it. More than even having 'Langar', it gives more pleasure and satisfaction to take part in its preparation, making breads(roti) by yourself, washing utensils with ur own hands, serving the 'Langar' itself to people...its just very noble.
