Update

Recent times have had a massive impact on our communities and economy. In the face of these challenges, Annalakshmi has been committed to keeping their doors open and adjusting its service model of “pay-as-you-wish” to a $15 set-price thali, as they struggle to get back on their feet.

There’s so much value in supporting local, and in their time of need, let’s give a little back so they can continue to be there for others doing it tough, as they have been for so long.
