Jamshedpur Lost Its IDLY-DOSA Standards

Date:21st October 2015.

Good Afternoon Good People....Today I'll be writing about the  "Deteriorating" Conditons of the Quality Of "South-Indian" dishes Sold in "Jamshedpur" (JHARKHAND) INDIA.
Even by the "Big" & well known "Small Hotels"

Before I start let me clear one thing 1st.

JAMSHEDPUR IS "NOT" LOCATED IN THE "SOUTHERN PART" OF India but
Most people in Jamshedpur Prefer to eat "South-Indian" dishes (IDLY-DOSA) as their BREAKFast, Lunch, Evening Snack, Dinner, etc :)

In other words IDLY-DOSA is the "Staple Food" of people living in Jamshedpur.

So How Come The "Staple Food" of Jamshedpur, Lost all its "Glory" Even Though the Current Government tells its people that they have brought "Aache Din" (Good Days) to most of the Poeple living in India.

To answer this, I've to dig deep inside whats happening but before I do that I've tell you all my Experiance in Eating "South-Indian" Food.

I'm a die hard fan of "Chinese + South Indian" (IDLY-DOSA) foods.
I've the experience of eating at "South Indian" food in many hotels & restaurants of our city.

From my Childhood day I love eating IDLY-DOSAS.

 I still remember the time when "Thela Wala Dosa"
(Small Mobile South-Indian Food Stalls) used to Cost:
Sada/Plain Dosa Rs. 4
Masala Dosa Rs.5

Our School Idly Used To Cost: Rs.0.50 Paisa Per Piece.
& During that time South-Indian Hotels of our city used to Charge:
Sada/Plain Dosa Rs.15
Masala Dosa Rs.20

To Make these Stats Look More Interesting I'll tell you during my Mom's Childhood days,Idly Used To Cost:Rs.1 For "10 Piece"
i.e. (10 paise for 1 IDLY) Amazing & that too of Good Quality Fresh IDLY & Chutney.

 The Major Names of "Thela Wala Dosa" that time were:
Aanand Rao Dosa (Sonari Area)
Uttam Dosa (KagalNagar Bus Stand)
Ravi Dosa (Sonari Area)
Santosh Sosa:
Jaichand Dosa (Loyola School)
Chotu Dosa (Loyola School)
GOPAL Dosa
(Jubilee Park Gate,Towards Sakchi Route)
T.S. Mani Dosa (Kadma Area)
Aana Dosa (Kadma-Sonari "LINK-Road" Area)
"I still remember the line which Mr.aana used to say to his helper, "aa "RAJA" Bacha ko thoda sambarr de de" :) (Give little Sambarr to the little kid)
 TMH (Tata Main Hospital) Canteen

(Near Bistupur Area)

In bistupur area there were two "Thela Wala Dosas" I don't actually remember their names right now but they were located beside
"Chappan Bhog" Sweets Hotel.

In other words this city is full of "South Indian" Stalls.

The major South indian Hotels were located in Bistupur Area: 

1.
Aashirwad:
South Indian Restaurant
Address: Opposite Mid Town Near Midtown Hotel, J Rd, Bistupur, Bistupur, Jamshedpur, Jharkhand 831001
Phone:0657 320 4105.

2.
The Madrasi Hotel:
South Indian Restaurant
Address: 10 J, bistupur Rd, Jamshedpur, Jharkhand 831001

3.
ANAND RESTAURANT
7, J Road, Bistupur, Jamshedpur - 831001, Near Nataraj
+(91)-657-2249058 2909530
+(91)-9431322580 9431322235
South Indian Restaurant.

4.
Jalaram (Now Closed)
(This hotel was Located Beside "ANAND RESTAURANT"
J Road, Bistupur, Jamshedpur - 831001, Near Nataraj.

All These 4 Hotels I've Mentioned Were Located next to/Opposite one another and to be honest.
 
Most "High Class" People Preferred:
"ANAND RESTAURANT"

Most "Middle-Class" People Preferred:
"Aashirwad" or The Madrasi Hotel or
Jalaram (Now Closed)

So What I Preferred ?
"Aashirwad" of course :)

but some time my father used to take us to a place called
"Madrasi Sammilani Canteen" Bistupur Jamshedpur.
"L Rd", Bistupur, Jamshedpur - 831001
+(91)-657-2432134 6457269
South Indian Canteen
Banquet Halls, Auditoriums
09:30 am to 06:30 pm.
It was also good.


But Keep in mind what I'm about to tell you can make you little bit "SAD" if you're a die-hard "DOSA" fan like ME & like to eat in any one of these Hotels (Aashirwad,Madrasi Hotel,ANAND RESTAURANT) or even in
"Madrasi Sammilani Canteen" They have ALL LOST THEIR "QUALITY STANDARDS"

AND BECAUSE OF THIS, A CUSTOMER LIKE YOU & ME WILL NOT GET WHAT WE USED TO GET FEW YEARS BACK.

So WHATS WRONG WITH THESE SOUTH-INDIAN HOTELS ?
WHY I'M WASTING MY TIME TO DECREASE THE REPUTATION OF THESE MAJOR HOTELS OF JAMSHEDPUR.
HEY "Evewin Christon Lakra" main moto has always been to make innocent customers aware of any bad things. 

So here I'm again making customers aware of what these Hotels are doing.

Out of the above mentioned Hotels most of them are serving "Basi" "Stale"
Food to its customers.

I'm not Mentioning "ANAND RESTAURANT" in my "Stale food" List coz I hardly Visit that Hotel.

So "Stale food" Serving Hotel are:
1.Aashirwad:
2.The Madrasi Hotel:
3."Madrasi Sammilani Canteen" 

Why & on What Basis I'm saying they're serving "Stale-Food" to Customers ?
Now a days on many occasions I've encounter this myself & believe me they're thinking "WE" customers are "Fools" We'll not be able to tell what food is fresh and what is stale & what they're serving is not FRESH I can Guarantee You All About this.

What they're doing is:
They are mixing "Left Over" Chutneys of Yesterday,
with the fresh Chutneys of today to decrease the "Stale Smell" as to fool customer in thinking the Chutneys which they're serving with idly-dosas are FRESH but in reality,its not, they're just clearing their left-over food.

Did Anyone Notice:
On Many Occasions the Dosa Tastes "Too Sour" than normal, its also because they're using the "Left-Over Batter" which has been fermented for "LONGER TIME" than needed and hence the DOSA You Order was "Too Sour"

50% Percent of the Solution is in the hand of the HOTEL-Owner and the people working over there coz what they're doing is "WRONG"

Sooner or Later they'll loose their Customers
(Including OLD Very Old Customers) if they'll not Improve the Quality of food Served. 

Just Think Now A Days (As Of October 2015) The "Current Average Price" of Simple
"Masala Dosa" is Rs.60 and the customer are "Ready" to pay that amount because he/she thinks they'll get the "Same Quality" Food which they used to get in the same hotel few years back but in "REALITY" They're wrong.

These Hotels Are Charging "High Price" For "LOW GRADE" Stale Food.

Its like you've paying a "Hotel Price" & not even getting the Thela Quality Food.
This is truly bad business Practice which is being followed by these type of hotels in Jamshedpur At the Moment. 

The Best Option for people is to work little harder and search for hotels which serve "Fresh Food" other wise Prepare IDLY-DOSAS at your HOME.
Yes Its Time Consuming & lengthy process but in the End You'll not end up EATING Stale Food.

You can Watch my Dosa making video if You have time.
Don't Know You'll like it or not but it tastes far far better than the one which is being served by these Hotels in Jamshedpur.




Thankyou for Stopping by & reading my blog Post.
Do Share this Blog Post With Your Friends & Family (Specially Who live in Jamshedpur) so that they cannot be "CHEATED" by these Hotels.

This is "Evewin Christon Lakra" Signing Off at the Moment But I'll be back again with Many more interesting Blog-Posts in the coming future to
Help & Protect Innocent Customers from these type of Cheaters. 
There is an UPDATE TO THIS BLOG POST:
DATE:4th November 2015.

I think somebody read this blog post & informed "Madrasi Hotel" about the quality of Dosa and they've improved the quality of the food served and it was fresh & the size of the Dosa was also big.....Hope other hotels follows this path to get their customers back.

Good Day & Peace To All.
