A serving counter inside a dining hall with a glass sneeze guard. A young man with long, curly dark hair and a red bindi, wearing a white kurta, a beaded necklace and a visitor badge, wears clear plastic gloves and serves food with a metal spoon from a steel tray. Across the counter a man in a white kurta with an orange-red shawl printed with dark script holds a steel plate of rice and cooked vegetables. Red curtains and a digital clock hang on the wall behind. The serving man is an appearance-based candidate but the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so his role is described as a server.
