The first statement sounded like I am always eating at road side stalls and never had a lunch at a restaurant. Not that I would bother going to a chain like that to begin with. I am obviously not a native speaker so maybe I misunderstood it.
I am not a fan of those road side stalls, I am not a germaphobe but at least my food should be made in a clean Kitchen. Maybe because my mom would never let me try those and I grew up that way.
Why would you assume I am eating at roadside stalls? Cause I am Indian?? Ignoring that hopefully accidental racism, I do in fact cook lunch when I have the time with mostly rice with one of the premade mixes and quick vegetable stir frys. Shouldn’t take more than 20 mins to make something simple. When I am busy I usually get something either in office or nearby restaurant. A good lunch at normal restaurants usually costs about 100-300₹ per person and could get some light food within 100₹ as well. I don’t count the shit at Starbucks as a meal, maybe a snack but why a sandwich when I can get good Indian food.
