Prabhupāda: That restaurant, mostly for drinking tea and pakorā.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. And there's a few in the office area in Fort where they give you . . .
Prabhupāda: Regular.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: . . . thāli. One rupee fifty, thāli.
Prabhupāda: Thāli?
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Thāli. They give four small purīs, three sabjīs . . .
Prabhupāda: Oh. That is called . . . oh.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: . . . and a little rice and half a papad. But it's not very filling, and it's not very nice.
Prabhupāda: Hmm. Not first class.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No. But yet it's packed with people. All the office people go there to eat there. And many office people get food brought to them in the office also, tiffins. You know . . .?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They have that in Bombay.
Prabhupāda: Yes, tiffin carrier.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That's a big business.
Prabhupāda: That is from their home.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh. That's a big business.
Prabhupāda: There is a professional tiffin-carrier man. They collect from different houses, and they come by the train and give to the person in the office.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh, that's collected from their home.
Prabhupāda: Hmm. Sometimes from hotel.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh. Yes, from hotel also. Sometimes I see them, huge quantities of tiffins.
Prabhupāda: Bombay officers, they, more than fifty percent, they eat in that tiffin-carrier.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. I think the restaurants make a big part of their business from that tiffin business in Bombay. Our . . . these other religions, just like Christianity, Judaism, they are accepted by the people and by the government because the people who are part of their religions are very normal in terms of doing business and society, etcetera. But we are very exceptional in every way. We don't . . .
Prabhupāda: Therefore they say "Brainwash."
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. We don't fit into the normal pattern of things—no jobs, no proper dress. Everything's strange to them. Because we don't want their culture; it is so abominable.
Prabhupāda: Yes. This is brahminical culture. They don't want it.
