A restaurant named after Railway Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav is turning out to be a huge hit in Lucknow.
Lalu Junction with an entire section on Lalu Prasad Yadav has been decorated to look like a typical railway junction. Complete with kiosks selling beetle leaves and cigarettes, the restaurant's waiters are dressed like coolies.
Guests are served drinks in earthern cups and plastic plates. A live band performs popular Hindi film songs, which completes the look.
Shamil Shamsi, the restaurant's manager, said they wanted to do something unique involving known personalities, and admits that though there are few Indians who are more shockingly famous than Yadav, the minister was still a major attraction from the public's point of view.
"As Lalu Prasad Yadav is a very famous personality, we thought of opening a restaurant in his name and this food festival is getting popular because of him only. We have made the menu according to the names of various trains. We have the Punjab Mail butter chicken. Each city through which a train passes through, we name a popular dish from that region," Shamsi said.
