Tihar jail opens restaurant for public

New Delhi’s infamous Tihar Jail—home to more than 13,000 inmates—has opened a restaurant that serves comfort food crafted by criminals.

Tihar Food Court opened earlier this month in the sprawling Tihar complex, the largest prison in South Asia. Samosas and other snacks along with drinks like lassi and even a thali with a variety of vegetarian dishes are on the menu.

Kapil Tanwar decided to bring his son to one of Delhi’s newest and most unusual restaurants to celebrate the completion of his college-application process.

“I promised my son that I’d treat him to some prison food to congratulate him,” said Mr. Tanwar, sipping on a glass of masala lassi.

The simple restaurant has seating for 45 and no iron bars, metal detectors or armed guards. It has indoor and outdoor seating, a tandoor oven and its cream walls are decorated with pieces of art painted by prisoners.
