Noida: A happy lunch of three friends at a popular restaurant in Greater Noida's Knowledge Park took an unsettling turn when they found a worm in their vegetable pulao.

The restaurant's response escalated the matter to the involvement of the Food Safety Department.

Aditya Bhati, an advocate who works at the District Court in Surajpur, shared the troubling experience on his social media.

 He said he and two of his friends were dining at the restaurant when they discovered a worm in the veg pulao.

“We had already paid the bill of Rs 2,000. When we informed the restaurant management about the worm, they claimed it had fallen from above and insisted that nothing could be done,” Bhati added.

Even after repeated complaints, the staff casually dismissed the problem, and no solution was provided. Bhati took to social media to recount his experience, accusing the restaurant of endangering public health.

In his post, the advocate tagged the district administration and the Chief Minister, urging immediate action against the restaurant management.
After Bhati's post went viral, a team from the Food Safety Department visited the restaurant to collect samples.

Assistant Commissioner of the Food Department, Sarvesh Mishra, said the department became aware of the incident through social media.
Further investigation into the matter is underway.
