Roaming in Putten Part-3


Hi All,

In this blog also I wish to share the experience that I had while roaming in Putten. We were discussing for a while to decide which restaurant to go and finally we entered into a Chinese restaurant. We all thought that we can have some noodles or fried rice, which maybe taste like an our Indian food. We ordered for two bottles of beer, a glass of coke and two plates of chicken fried rice. You maybe wondering, why we ordered only two plates of chicken fried rice even though we are four. Actually Srikanth told us that in this restaurant, the quantity will be more compared to that we get in our country for each plate of chicken fried rice. You may also wondering how Srikanth knew that, in fact this is his eleventh visit to The Netherlands.

Since we all where hungry we ordered for another plate of chicken fried rice and also a glass of water, we need to order water also if we need. You maybe in for a daze if you know the price for a glass of water as we were in for a daze, its fifty cents that means in Indian rupee, its thirty two!!! if you order for an mineral water. But tap water was free of cost but we came to know about that details after ordering only. In the below you can see the image that I took from that Chinese restaurant.

Can you guess how much it would have charged us for having three plates of chicken fried rice, two bottle of beer, a glass of coke and off course a glass of water? Again we where in for a daze, the price was thirty two euros and its almost two thousand rupees for just few items :(. But in our country, I would have used that money for a entire month for all my food expenses. But it happens what to do, we have to learn from it and around 3PM we came out of the restaurant and we reached our castle around 4PM.

Thanks,
Ramesh Kumar Gurusamy.
