A living wage is defined in the dictionary as "a wage that is high enough to maintain a normal standard of living." Now we could argue about what a normal standard of living qualifies as but I think we can agree that it includes at minimum room & board for the individual.

By that meager definition a lot of restaurants don't pay a 'living wage'
