“Sharing is Not Caring” We entered as a family of seven, elders included, looking forward to togetherness. We even politely requested: “Let us pick our own food, then gather at a common table.” But the manager stood firm on his culinary philosophy — apparently, people who don’t share plates mustn’t share tables. In his restaurant, meals may be multi-cuisine, but seating is strictly single-belief. Anyway, I landed in the Daal Baati section (Rajasthani by heart, after all) — on the first floor, with no staff in sight. The food was as cold as the welcome, probably because only two souls were eating there. When we moved as three and finally called someone, the staff kindly replaced it with a warmer version. In the end, we enjoyed the food though togetherness came only after enough “heat” was added. But the real “special” came when I walked back to give feedback. The manager, sitting with his co-founders/friends and giggling, explained their logic: “We can’t stop people from eating papad from other people’s plates. If you want to eat together, order the combo thali for all — the most expensive one. That’s the cost of sitting together.” So the choice for our elders (who don’t eat much) was: 1. Order food they didn’t want, just to qualify for togetherness. 2. Risk a ₹100 fine for any leftovers. Does that make sense? Maybe to them. To us, it felt like fine dining — with the emphasis on the fine. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: ₹200–400 Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 3
