A photograph of a serving line in an indoor kitchen-like room. A woman in a white sari with a red-orange shawl stands at right, using clear plastic gloves to serve from steel containers and placing flatbread onto a plate. Facing her at left, a young man in a white t-shirt holds out a steel plate of mixed vegetable curry. Behind him, several people in white and pink clothes wait in line, holding steel plates and bowls. Stacks of flatbread sit on the counter in front, and a wall clock and framed picture hang on the wall behind them.
