Ek thali aur hum hain sau

Nothing spices up food as much as a free meal. Which is why all freeloaders have been heading to the food plaza at CST, for a dip into the unlimited thali. Here's how it works. One person buys the Rs 50 unlimited thali and on a good day, two more dig in, obviously FOC.u00a0u00a0


Pankaj Goel, partner, Re-fresh Food Plaza, said, "The thali is meant for one person only, but my staff has told us that quite often it is shared by more than one person. Initially, they were not able to refuse them, but I have told them to keep a watch and only then serve second helpings."




"We have decided to shut it down by 10 pm. There was a terrible incident where a female commuter was eating around 11 pm, and a drunk man came in and forcibly began eating from her plate. When we intervened, he said he was only trying to taste the food to see if it was similar to his order. There is no point in asking for security," said Goel.

However, neither the government railway police nor the railway protection force have received any complaint in this regard so far. Sandeep Khiratkar RPF's senior police inspector at CST and Dilip Mane, Sr inspector, GRP said, "If the food plaza wants security, it can be considered," they said.

Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation officials on the other hand said that they have no idea about the problems. "In case I receive any complaints from the licensee, I will surely ask for security," said R D Sharma, group GM, IRCTC.
