Part of Homeboy Industries, the world’s largest gang-rehabilitation programme, Homegirl Cafe serves bright Mexican-inspired food cooked and served by trainees rebuilding their lives. The mission is as good as the food. Come for a weekday lunch, try the chilaquiles, and know your bill supports the wider Homeboy programme.
