In a first of it's kind initiative, the national capital's Tihar Jail authorities have ventured to set up a restaurant where a few select inmates who have passed a hotel management course with flying colours will rustle up scrumptious delicacies and serve the same to you with a smile on their visages.........
Located on the city's Jail Road, the said restaurant is partially operational at present and will go whole hog within the next few days with it's expressed aim of serving quality and delectable food at prices that you can never even begin to imagine.........
A few selected inmates of Tihar Jail's semi-open jail underwent a hotel management course last month as part of an initiative launched by the ministry of tourism and will now be putting those hard learnt lessons to prudent and delectable use........
Most people who have thus far visited this unique restaurant serve by the quality and taste of food served there and said that they would certainly visit the restaurant many a time as long as it keeps up the good work and continues serving those delicacies with which it has come to be identified............
With a restricted seating capacity of 50 persons as of now, the restaurant is currently operational between 10 am and 10 pm and the same also provides home deliveries within a one kilometre radius.........
Ten to twelve of the 45-50 inmates who underwent training in hotel management, cooking, house keeping and food service are currently employed in the restaurant and the number of people employed will increase substantially once the restaurant begins it's operations on the scale that it is meant to...........
What is even more heartening is the fact that all the earnings from the restaurant go towards a fund earmarked for the welfare as well as imparting of vocational and life sustaining skills to the prison's inmates.............
Here's wishing this first of a kind restaurant unprecedented success in very venture and hoping that other jail authorities would take a leaf out of Tihar Jail's prison manual and make efforts towards setting up similar ventures within their domains and spheres of influence.........
