New York City\u2019s infamous jail Rikers Island houses nearly 7,000 detainees. Chefs, not inmates, do the cooking. And while they\u2019re on their shift, the chefs are locked inside, too. There are cameras everywhere, monitored from the guard\u2019s office. Dull knives are chained to heavy machinery. Can lids slide into a locked cage. Spoons are locked up in the office. Inside Rikers\u2019 kitchens, there\u2019s a delicate balance between the chefs, the guards, and the inmates who wash the dishes.<\/p>\n
