NAN, KULCHA & RUMALI ROTI CANNOT BE MADE WITHOUT EGG

The following email is received from Darshan Shah which makes a sensational revelation. Read on .

Having visited a very good restaurant in Suburban Mumbai, we ordered
Jain Subzi along with combination of NAN & Roti. In a few seconds the
manager of the restaurant who was known to me from many years
approached me and requested me to cut NAN from our order as it was not a
JAIN food, I inquired to him that how was that possible as it's only
made of MAIDA.

What he clarified with his professional ethics was just shocking, here
are the details:-

1] NAN, KULCHA & RUMALI ROTI CANNOT BE MADE WITHOUT EGG in it. It is
absolutely impossible for any one to make them without eggs in a restaurant.
It will not be that soft and elastic through out the day and shall start
to crack in some time.

2] He also clarified that having been registered a Vegetarian restaurant, he can't
bring in eggs so he gets the Atta made in ready form from local bakeries
who prepare it for them and also supply to all restaurants.

3] He also said that even thought all restaurants owners shall deny this
but it is a fact and that others do not say it so as to not lose
business. In fact they turn a blind eye on what the bakery wala adds to
the atta mixture.

4] He also stated that he has experience for so many years as a
restaurant manager in many restaurants he does not know any single outlet that
could give you VEGETARIAN NAN, KULCHA or RUMALI ROTI.

5] He also stated that he now clarifies it to all his clients, as he
feels that it is against his ethics to not provide details to the customer

6] Plain Roti is the only indian bread that a normal Vegeterian or a Jain
can consume in a restaurant.

All this stated above is 100% true and i shall request all of you to
PLEASE give this detail to all your friends who are not only Jain but
even Vegetarian.

Paryushan Parv

Paryushan Parv will start from 16th August 2009 for some whereas for some it will start from 17th August 2009. This is as far as Sthanakvasi & Deravasi sects are concerned. For Digambars, it would start from 24 th August and last for not 8 but 10 days. This period is invariably looked up on as period of penance and meditation. This parv is celebrated in monsoon and monsoon is a season of diseases. With that thing in mind, we also have fasting as an important ritual during Paryushan. Shri Dinesh Shah has sent Routine to be observed during Paryushan.
