As a vegetarian?

I’m not a vegetarian by birth, but, vegetarian by choice for the last 8 years. I never had a necessity to write this all along but now, after a pathetic dinner service last night at Hotel Empire and a sad breakfast service at Koshy’s this morning.

We(Rammorrison, Karthik, Ram and I) were in a hurry on our way to Skandagiri and decided to finish our dinner at MG Road zone itself. We kinda got some parking space opposite Hotel Empire and managed to get a table as well. My problem started with looking for a good veg dish from the menu in a hard-core non veg restaurant. Karthik and I being veg, ordered 2 veg appam’s and a curd rice. Instead of serving appam first, they served curd rice (sad) and we had to eat as we were hungry. The non veg food including the chicken kebab were served faster than the veg appam. :( .

In less than 24 hours, an other bad experience for me on the food thing. This morning after a tiring trek at skandagiri, we all headed to Koshy’s for the break fast. Koshy’s play a major role in the Bangalore food circuit for decades together now, but, made be sad with their service this morning. Karthik and I were again made to wait for 25mins, as we ordered veg sandwich, when the vegetable omlettes and double fried eggs with pepper were served faster.

So the thought for the day was simple.
Never go to a Non-Veg restaurant to eat Veg food, if you go, don’t expect a better service on the Veg orders.

    Even I had such experiences.. but cannot stay from the non-veg restaurants when going with friends… :-(

    Quite true.. moreover, even the quality of veg food at non-veg food joints is not that great…

    They seem to have kept veg items in their menu only for solace of some vegetarians in minority in a large group…
