The fast-food joints will serve breakfast, lunch, and dinners to the local people at a highly subsidized price.[2][3] Idlis and coconut chutney along with variety rice of the day will be served in breakfast, for lunch and dinner, rice, sambar, curd rice, tomato bath and a few other items will be served.[1] Food will be served only within fixed timings, Breakfast will be served only from 07:30 AM to 09:30AM, Lunch will be served only from 12:30PM to 03:00 PM and Dinner from 07:30PM to 09:00PM.
