Suspended meal
A suspended meal refers to a concept in which people pay in advance for a meal that will be provided to those that request for it later. The extra meal that they purchase is suspended; that is, the restaurant will mark down the sum of money and ‘suspend’ the additional meal for the poor. Suspended meals today range from a cup of coffee to a meal set.
==Origin==
The term originates from a tradition that started in Italy, called pending coffee, or in Italian, caffe sospeso. Similarly, it refers to a cup of coffee that is paid in advance for someone in need. The trend started in cafes of Naples, where people who had experienced good luck or people of middle class would pay for an extra cup of coffee. Then, the poor would come by later and ask if there was any sospeso that could be given for free to them. Such trend has been adopted by other cafes and restaurants that now incorporate the concept of suspended meals.
