will serve Welcome Drink (Mango Juice) and 500ml Rail Neer(saw for the 1st time)
After that they will serve Evening Breakfast/Snacks and Tea only for those who will deboard at GWL (many ppl deboard and board from GWL)
.
2. After GWALIOR they will again serve Welcome Drink who boarded from GWL
Later on near by Morena they will serve all the Passenger (who opted for meal) will get Evening Breakfast/Snacks and Tea/Coffee
.
3. Same repeat for Agra Pax who board from Agra
.
➡️ In evening snacks they will serve you 1 Mithai (sandesh), 1 chatni, 1 kurkure peanuts, chole kulche, chatni, small tiger biscuits and new food that is shammi kebab (veg) which was too good in taste, also the napkins and sanitizer pouch..
Well i open the sanitizer and use half of it, then try the Mithai which was absolutely good in taste, then i tried chole kulche which was also good but less in quantities, then i tried the new dish which looks like cutlet but it was shammi kebab, i asked it from Train Hostess and she doesn't know about that but the Male Hostess knows that and he told me the same
For food i will rate 5/5 as it was one of the tasty food i had in my journeys..
They will serve you hot water in Thermocole glass and provide u the coffee/tea packet to make it yourself..
I made espresso as i didn't added milk powder (didn't slept last night)
.
Bonus Tea/Coffee
You can also ask for a Coffee/Tea later too as some pax who finished their Snacks before Agra, two of them ask for coffee after crossing Mathura..

4. E-Catering available at ANVT-GKP else enroute don't know about services as CNB-LKO all stations are in mid night...
.
My Opinion:- Take Veg Casserole Meal as the food was tasty as compared to price tag, they serve me Rice, Chapati, Dal, Sabzi, Pickle, Glass Water, Soan Cake(Instead of Curd due to winter)...

4/5 for food
