Quite the carb fest. Hardly any protein. Wonder what the calorie count is in each dish.

Raju, a construction worker from Punjab, was introduced to the canteen by his co-workers.
"I earn 400 rupees a day. Before these canteens came up, I used to spend at least 150 rupees on food per day. Now I spend only 20 rupees a day," he says.

the lentils in sambhar, in curd and in roti provide some of the protein. These are mostly hard working physical laborers. they need tons of carbs.

hv you seen the lunch farmers take in villages. this is no different. i searched for a Amma's canteen during my last trip on my travels. nothing was on my way. next time i will eat. indian restaurants are getting too pricey for me.

No almas caviar? no perigord truffles? no lobster frittata? how about some fruits, say yubari melon? at least, the densuke black one?

hmmmm.... i am deeply disappointed that they don't offer any of these proletarian staple chow Rolling Eyes
