A new Alphabet City restaurant serves $125 meals for $15, if you choose

The storefront is Community Kitchen, a nonprofit "sliding-scale" restaurant that aims to make high-quality, ethically sourced meals accessible to all New Yorkers, regardless of income. It offers an unusual combination in the city's food scene: a fine-dining experience with no distinction in service or menu based on what diners pay. Community Kitchen opened Sept. 19 inside the Lower Eastside Girls Club, serving dinner Wednesday through Saturday, through Thanksgiving.
