Most of us love to eat when we travel especially in Trains. I personally cannot eat stale food and rely on IRCTC (Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation) and its channel partners to get good food, but that seldom impress’s anyone. The quality of food is really low from a hygiene and taste perspective.
Recently a number of services have started that allows you to order quality food while on the rail. All you need to have is a smartphone with Internet, either your PNR number or Train Number. The menu appears as soon as key information is entered and shows where all the food is available along your route. These services also shows where your food is coming from. The order needs to be made atleast an hour ago depending from service to service. The service is available in almost all major railway stations. Some of the key players are:-
1) Comesum
2) Travel Khana
3) Yatra Chef
5) Khana Online
6) Idly Vada
Though there is minimum order value and a little expensive than the railway’s, but the food is better than IRCTC and its partners. The amalgamation of technology and food just goes to another level! Kudos to food lovers!
