Today morning I drove my family to see different "pandals" "( makeshift ) places of worship dedicated to the Divine Mother.
It was a long drive - around 100 kms. When we reached a small town, my parents and my wife were feeling hungry.
There were many restaurants, but my father asked a man if we could have good food anywhere.
He told us there was a couple living near the outskirts of the town. They cook the food themselves - purely vegetarian.
We went their home. There was a middle aged couple. We ordered the food of our choice and they cooked the food right in front of us. The place was neat and clean and they were very swift in cooking.
After half an hour they served us the food. It was so tasty and satisfying that no words to praise it.
We thanked the couple and left for home.

Thank you. Yes, both the husband and the wife are very polite and soft spoken. Very few people know they are running their own business. Now on we will eat there whenever we go to that town.

@nawala123 Exactly. They are originally from Uttar Pradesh, one of our northern state.

Thank you. Very few people in that town know that couple. It was just a coincidence that we ask the man who had eaten in their house. It was a house, not a restaurant. The food was very tasty.Now on whenever we go to that town, we would eat there.

Sounds like a great way to end the day. I am sure India has some awesome restaurants and people who cook for others.

Thank you. Yes, they cooked in front of us. And the food was very tasty and in a very affordable prices. Many people visit their house to eat.The food we had there was far better than what we get in big restaurants.
