During a train journey, many travellers often carry packed lunch boxes and handy snacks to eat. But a family from Surat, Gujarat had other plans. They turned a 3AC train coach into a makeshift kitchen. According to a video posted on X by @7Npatel, we can see newspapers laid out on one train berth, while on another, family members sit chopping potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers and other vegetables. The video also shows other ingredients like butter, chutney and small kitchen tools needed to chop vegetables.
Several women were busy assembling sandwiches while one man from the family was recording videos. They arranged the bread, spread the chutney and added sliced vegetables before making fresh sandwiches for the group. The video gained even more attention when one of the women from the family joked that they had forgotten to bring an electric toaster along to grill the sandwiches. This surprised some viewers, as using an electric appliance on a train could be unsafe.
