The foreigner asked the manager-cum-cook-cum- salesman – “Cook Muslim?”
“ehhh…. no…”‘, replied the manager-cum-cook-cum-salesman.
“…” . The foreigner did not care to reply back. Just moved on ..
When i asked the manager-cum-cook-cum-salesman what did the foreigner mean by ‘cook muslim’ , he replied – ” i don’t know..maybe he wanted to know if the cook is a muslim.. or may be he wanted non-veg food.”
Apparently , some foreigners are particular about what non veg cuisine are they being served. They know why Mughlai food is famous.
Meanwhile, the manager-cum-cook-cum-salesman waived at the next-to-next shop to another manager-cum-cook-cum-salesman and pointed him the foreigner walking by.
While explaining ‘cook muslim?’ to me the manager-cum-cook-cum-salesman just made an indirect sale.
Pahadganj has a lot of ‘International Marketing’ happening. Lot of backpackers who wish to stay in Delhi prefer Pahadganj hotels due to the low rents.
Pahadganj sells anything and everything to the foreigners.
Interesting.
