Japanese Bento boxes for this months dinner. Superb! Marinated chicken, cucumber salad, soba noodles and a tri-colored mochi for dessert. A wonderful meal and full a great flavors. These bi-monthly events are great for the community and bring a lot of people together to enjoy food and friendship. Love supporting them and the community support they provide. The meals are pay what you want and add a little more if you want to pay ahead for somebody's meal.

I am glad to share with you my success story today, when I started trading binary and forex few months ago, I really don't have the necessary tools to trade and I lost a lot until I met Mrs. Carlos who thought me all about the market psychology as She managed my account for me. Today I am grateful to her for her great offer and help because it really changed my financial situation with an investment capital of $500 and am making $6000 profits per week right now. If you need her help, contact her via

I love going to the Moon Rabbit Cafe every other month! They always post the date and time on their Facebook page or website so be sure to check when the next dinner is. The dinners are usually on Saturdays from 4 pm to 6 or 7 pm. Each dinner has a different theme so it's never the same!This is a pay what you can meal - $5 covers the meal for yourself and $10 covers a meal for yourself and another. There are also volunteer opportunities. Donations are currently accepted on GoFundMe for prepaying in advance or you could pay in person as well (no change for cash currently).With COVID, they've gone with outdoor seating on the lawn, dine-in your car, or drive-through, pick-up, and go. The parking lot is pretty easy to see as you're driving to the location. You'll see all the volunteers outside with a shade covering. They will direct you to where to park and then will walk up to get your order and deliver the food.Their meals are pretty tasty with the different volunteer chefs. In all the meals I've gotten, they usually come with an appetizer, main entree, dessert, and drink. I haven't been disappointed with any dinners yet. Will definitely be stopping by again whenever this community cafe pops up!

So, I was invited to moon rabbit cafe for their occasional community feed. It was hosted at the Reno Buddhist Center. They feature a different chef each time, this was my first time so I enjoyed a Thai peanut salad, vegan curry over white rice with tofu and rice pudding for desert. The atmosphere was like a cafeteria, long table seating with multiple parties sitting next to each other. The most unique part of the dinner was that it was donation based, it's a way of giving back to the community and raising money for various causes. Reno Buddhist Center is beautiful. It was a preset menu with little variety but I imagine they do that to keep it simple and serve many. It was an experience in community more than anything and it was pleasing to know everyone was volunteering their time to serve so many. This is a busy event, be prepared to wait and keep in mind the cause and element of service that can't be matched in a traditional setting. I can't wait to go again!

Moon Rabbit Café 225 3/4 W Taylor St, Reno NV 89509 February 2, 2020 Saturday - 5:30 PM for dinner 4 Adults Atmosphere - 5 stars Dinner - 5 stars Service - 5 stars Background - This pop up restaurant has been on my radar for a long time. The dates and menus are always changing. Atmosphere - Enjoying their new place in Sparks. We were able to grab a table as Brad and I where the first ones in the door. Food Every time Moon Rabbit host they bring a chef from the local community. Tonight events was called Tasty Thai 2! Which made tonight possible for us was that the meal was gluten free. Drinks - Just water for me. Appetizer - We started with Thai salad which featured a lot of peanuts. Nothing to write home about. Dinner - Then dinner was either chicken curry or tofu curry. I am trying to be heathier and went with tofu, shocking the group which was not a surprise to me. I only gave up chicken, it was not cow. There was a lot of rice but the curry sauce was so tasty and I enjoyed this. Dessert - A small clear cup filled with rice pudding topped with a caramel banana yumminess which has a coconut crumble. Service - This is a fund raiser for the church. We arrived at 5:30 and was told 30 minute wait, it was really an hour. So waiting a bit was not an issue when you go with great friends. As you leave you can make your donation for pay what you can dinner. They recommend $10 a person, which is a steal. Future - Yes please.
Awesome unique experience. Once a month dinner prepared by chefs of renown. Put this on your bucket list.

I was looking for ways to be of service to the community and reached out using Yelp! This search lead me to find the opportunity to volunteer with Moon Rabbit Cafe! Their website allows you to fill out an informational form and you can choose which shifts to work. You will receive a confirmation email within the next week. I had to make time adjustments and was able to communicate back and forth with Reverend Shelley right away! Where the day of the event, there is a good area for street parking around the temple. Fortunately the door was open and I walked through to the kitchen where food preparation was being explained by guest Chef Tina of The Burnt Orange. I was then greeted by Rev. Shelley and started prep soon after. I had a colleague I was partnered with to prepare dessert plating. The Chef was very awesome and patient with communicating the how-to of our project. It was a little tricky fitting the cake slices in the dessert plates, but chef demonstrated a solution for players fitting. The host made note of this concern, a while later, so a bit of communication was stalled but not all hope was lost. I then helped prepare more sides and was able to get to know Chef Mike, who told me about the history of Moon Rabbit Cafe. More volunteers came in and got acquainted very quickly. The connections and conversations made the environment feel safe and comfortable event when kitchen catering is a hectic duty. The pleasant staff and chef's were great to work with! I was glad to find this event and pay it forward for a few hours! I was unable to take photos, but fortunately the Facebook page will have this up soon enough!!
