Premvati Uphar Gruh — Restaurant in Gujarat

Premvati Snacks House, beside Swaminarayan temple in Rajkot, Gujarat, is a fast food outlet owned and operated by the management board of the temple.

You have to place your order at the receiving counters, obtain tokens, and get your food plates from the dispatch counters. They serve breakfast, fast food, lunch, dinner, beverages, and varieties of ice creams.

I was shocked and surprised to see people eating in standing position in front of small round tables; there were no chairs. I did not expect this in a religious place. It gave me the impression that the place is a business establishment, and the objective is to make money in the name of religion.

Also, if you want to order just sabzi or proper khichdi separately (in parcel), they don’t allow that.

Still, considering the cleanliness and affordable price, it’s a decent option overall — especially if you’re okay with limited choices and...

I called and the operator and asked if it was Premvati Restaurant. He greeted "Jay Swaminarayan". I repeated the question. He repeated the greeting. Did the same thing for the third time and he greeted with frustration : Jay Swaminarayan, Jay Swaminarayan, Jay Swaminarayan!!! And hang up the phone. First I was confused.. I didn't get as to why he hang on me... Then I realized he was racist and rude as well. He wanted me to repeat the greeting and because I didn't repeat after me, he hang up!!! Faced such racism over the phone for the first time. Can you force someone to repeat the greeting of your choice? What a racist and rude !!!! Someone who is representing an...
