In India, a unique restaurant forces customers to sit around graves to enjoy dinner. While you may expect to relish food in a 'wonderful' restaurant, this dining experience offers a bit of a twist.
If you're up for a dinner at a uniquely eerie venue, there's a restaurant in India that won't disappoint.
This restaurant not only serves delicious meals but also offers a creepy setting with dining options amidst gravestones.
Among the myriad of eccentric restaurants worldwide, a particular spot in Ahmedabad, India, stands out for its unusual decor—gravestones.
The unique restaurant with dinner amidsy the dead.
The Lucky restaurant, nestled in the heart of Ahmedabad, is Indian.
The restaurant offers not just a delectable menu and comfortable seating, but also an unexpected sight: gravestones.
The restaurant is constructed directly over a burial ground, with graves prominently displayed amidst the tables and chairs.
The owner of the restaurant established it in a cemetery.
Krishnan Kutti, the owner of the Lucky restaurant, made an unconventional decision.
Kutti executed his plan with a unique idea. Instead of hiding or masking the gravestones, he integrated them into the design of the restaurant.
To ensure patrons' comfort and respect for the deceased, Kutti erected steel barriers around the graves.
According to the resident, the restaurant was opened on a cemetery, where the identity of those involved remain unknown.
It is speculated that they were Muslim followers of a 16th-century Sufi saint.
Despite the eerie setting, Kutti believes that dining with the dead brings good luck. The graves are treated with reverence, cleaned, and adorned with fresh flowers every morning.
The cultural significance of dining with the dead
Embracing Tradition and SuperstitionWhile some may find dining amidst graves unsettling, Kutti views it as a symbol of good luck.
The graves, believed to belong to followers of a 16th-century Sufi saint, are treated with reverence, adorned with fresh flowers daily.
On social media, many shared their experience of enjoying dinner there.
On social media, many criticized the owner of Lucky restaurant, suggesting that graveyards are not a place for entertainment, while others claimed that this restaurant is an interesting place that captured their attention.
One person said: Business is different and sometimes boundaries are different. Everything cannot be used as a marketing strategy. It's kinda disrespectful.
A second wrote: Graveyards are not a place to take chill or adventure or entertainment but a place to introspect for hereafter..
While a third commented: Positives and negatives is belongs on mindset. Change it and worth it .
Another added: I also happen to go there once it is near sidhi saiyad ki jali
Someone else said: Well thanks to the Indians,they're smart and intelligent as well.
I have been here so many times and I used to think why would anyone open a restaurant in a cemetery. Someone added.
These establishments remind us of the thin line between life and death, adding a touch of the macabre to everyday experiences. So, the next time you plan a meal or a trip, remember - you might just be stepping into history.
