INDIA: Rice, moong dal (pea and potato curry), chapati, chai tea.
In India, lunch is very much a family affair — even if you're not sitting down to eat it all together.
Family members pack hot lunches in tiffin boxes for those at work. These are then collected by tiffin wallahs and delivered to the workers. This operation is very popular in India's bigger cities, such as Mumbai.
A tiffin box often contains a vegetable or lentil curry alongside rice or a chapati flatbread — all of which is followed by a cup of sweetened chai tea.
or "Shepherds pie" (lamb stew with potatoes covering the top. Keeps warm till after noon)
Oh and "Cornish pasty" like the shepherds pie but all encased in pastry.
I typically did one of these most lunchtimes when I started working when I lived there , all washed down with a pint or 2 of course
