Agree
Worst train in terms of cleanliness. Cockroaches were more than the passengers. Lot of unreserved passengers especially during the rush hour will try to occupy seats. The toilets were bad, and cannot be fixed with mere cleaning. The train is LHB from outside but from inside it was a decade old.

Some pics of food from Mandovi's pantry car!

Honest opinion, it's overhyped. The food is GOOD, no second thoughts about that, but I feel like the modern day railvloggers have blindly hyped everything up for clickbait content.

review:
•Bread cutlet: sub-par. For someone who's had cutlets from Deccan Queen(ICF days), Netravati and Mangala(ICF days) and Parashuram, these cutlets were absolutely tasteless.
•Tomato soup: the BEST tomato soup I've ever tasted till date!!! This one's a must try even if you've packed food from home.
•Chicken Lollipop: average to good. I have had better from Netravati's pantry(ICF days).
•Veg fried rice: this was excellent. Would 100% recommend this to anyone.
•Chicken chilli: good. Not comparable to restaurants but was very good by railway standards.
•Chicken fried rice: strictly average. The chicken had a raw smell to it and I had to keep all the chicken fragments aside and consume just the rice. The quantity of chicken was generous though.

Some dishes are excellent, some are good, others are sub-par. So choose wisely and don't fall for the clickbait madness.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
