Salad bar “Mano Guru”, founded by 'Socialiniai Paramos Projektai', is a place where big changes in peoples' lives happen. Through a social reintegration program, socially marginalized people (especially ex-drug or alcohol addicts and ex-convicts) acquire practical training to become a waiter, bartender or cook.

The salad bar is implementing sustainable practices and serves as a place for events and gatherings for the local community.
