Located at the Milan Bollate Prison, In Galera restaurant is a concrete example of social reintegration of inmates. What makes it unique is not only the high-quality dining experience it offers, but above all the stories of those who work there. Indeed, In Galera is a place where the stories of different people in prison intersect, each with their own experience and perspective. For some inmates, working in the kitchen or hall means more than just having a temporary occupation. It is a chance to prove their ability to keep up with professional standards in the industry, acquire new skills and demonstrate their ability to work as part of a team. In this sense, In Galera also represents an opportunity for redemption for those who have made mistakes in the past. But the restaurant is not only a place of work for inmates, it is also a way for the outside community to get in touch with prison reality in a new and different way. It thus becomes a bridge between the prison and the outside world, a place where social and cultural differences can be overcome through the sharing of a common passion: quality food. In summary, In Galera represents a project of great social value, able to offer an opportunity of redemption to inmates and to bring the outside community closer to the prison reality. See less
