Bangalore’s Biggest Kitchen belongs to Akshaya Patra

My mother is a Govt school teacher. Last few years she doesn’t carry lunch to school. When ever I question her answer would be I like to have with my kids. They get food from Akshaya Patra we (teachers) make sure that we also eat the same food once the kids are done. I didnt care much until I got a mail from Akshaya Patra so that I can blog about them. That is when I went back to my mother to ask (Not a child you see!) howz the lunch at school? well the answer was “clean”, “healthy” and delivered on time everyday.

After that blog post. I was very keen on visiting Akshaya Patra’s Kitchen. They were very happy to oblige. But the condition was to be there at the kitchen before 7am as cooking gets over by 7:30am. Continue reading about Akshaya Patra on my blog
