Experience of Apartheid at Bundi

I recently visited Beautiful Bundi.It was a wonderful Trip.Our Guest House was Uma Megh Haveli and we eat mostly at haveli Katkaoun.They are wonderful and help ful persons.In the evening I think to try to eat at Roof top Restaurant at kasera Heritage hoping to have a dinner veiwing the wonderful Palace. But as I went to the hotel and meet the owner at the ground floor he told us that there is no restaurant while there was big board telling rooftop cafe.
It makes me upset.It seems that he does not want a indian family to be at his rooftop restaurant.Very shamful.
A fellow indian does not allow a another indian to eat at restaurant.
I think indians too have right to appreciate beauty of Palace Complex from his Roof top restaurant.

Have you watched Indian families eating?

(I'm only joking)

That's a dreadful thing for any place to do, but I've heard of it many times in India, there's not many countries in the world that would put up with this kind of thing.

This is the one with an automatic bell on the door right? I think I know why they don't like Indians, though I'm Indian and have been there on a couple of occasions . . . They're a bit paranoid about serving alcohol without a permit! It might also be that the cook was on leave . . . also I don't blame the tourist restaurants for being wary of Indians, apart from Israelis, we're probably the most demanding clients!!

This problem is quite easily solved- and the guys business brought to zero for a day or three. Have done it twice, but not in Bundi.

umm, no, not by dialogue.

Err, no story. Disrupting a hotel/tourist business is easy. Just requires slight insanity.

Like . . . ?

Do a dharna at the door?
Write racist slogans all over their facade?
Get everyone to poop right outside?

You're not telling us!!

not recommended, but sweeping the entire buffet to the floor and telling customers the show is just starting is one way that seems to work.

In my case, a German backpacker joined in to help me

It didn't, though the German and I were the only ones who had dinner there that day, and three of his customers checked out, either in protest or because they didn't want to be around the situation.

Now i'm confused! You had dinner? then what was the problem? I thought it was the lack of service based on skin colour that was the issue!!

Hey and you forget that the same food would have been eaten the next day by unsuspecting tourists like us!!
