Food quality of this train degraded a lot. Once used to have best food among Hatia originating trains 5-6 yrs back but Current quality offered by "ROOP Caterers" is way below what "Kwality caterers " used to offer some years back. And the attendant accepts that kwality caterers are one of the best in whole IR. Means you accept that they are the best but you don't even try to reach their level. Anyways, price:
Veg thali - 120
Egg thali - 130
Chicken...

thali - 140
(2 paratha, rice, daal, soyabean-aaloo subji which was the worst of all, pickle, chicken/egg/matar paneer). No curd, no sweet. Food priced higher than other caterers operating in SER. E.g. neelam caterers in 12809/10 mail provide comparatively better (though average overall) chicken thali at 120 rs with a sweet.
Breakfast and MRP items sold at their standard rate. No overcharging.
Other items:
Tea - 10 rs
Samosa/aaloo chop (bonda) - 2 for 20 rs
