See, there’s no debate about the fact that idlis and dosas are some of the cheapest, healthiest and most filling food items you can find at a restaurant in India. They sell for about Rs 20 to Rs 50 a plate, sometimes even to Rs 100 if the place is fancy. But not more than that. However, one man had to pay quite a bit for these ‘cheap’ food items in Gurgaon.
A guy named Ashish Singh took to X (formerly Twitter) to share how he spent Rs 1,000 on two dosas and idli at a restaurant that made him wait for 30 minutes. The dosas aren’t even that big in size. Just to give you a comparison, in any regular place in Bengaluru, this would cost approximately Rs 45.
Bc gurgaon is crazy, spent 1K on two Dosa and idli after waiting for 30 min.
Suggest good and reasonably priced dosa places. pic.twitter.com/HYPPK6C07U

As a result, a lot of people’s first reaction was to ask the guy to move to Bengaluru! On the other hand, people came up with the funniest jokes to his post. Have a look:

It indeed is crazy. Not to mention dealing with the valet parking at 32 milestone.
Sarvana bhavan is decent but in Gurgaon it is delivery only which doesn’t work for dosa. Gotta go to Delhi.
Juggernaut is good, but also not close by— Akshay Sharma (@the_motonomad) December 6, 2023

Not all of Gurgaon sells expensive dosas and idlis. Maybe the guy went to a super posh restaurant in a super hot neighbourhood! 😛
