Several servers wear orange lanyards and some have rudraksha malas around their necks. One server in the foreground holds a plate of rice, yellow dal and green vegetables, while others use tongs and spoons to serve from the trays. A steel bucket with a yellow handle sits in front of the counter, and people wait in line behind, some in white and others in casual clothes. This appears to be a communal meal service, with servers wearing disposable plastic gloves.2009-08-13July 17 20112011-07-17 +2 copiesA buffet serving line of steel pots with a yellow rice dish on a patterned cloth, in a pink-walled hall with a golden cobra-hood canopy at left.
