TravelKhana: The Food King of Indian Trains

Planning your journey right when travelling on a train is of the utmost importance! We book the tickets for travelling, confirm our booking, check our PNR status from time to time, and finally, on the day of the travel, we leave for our destination. The moment we get on the train, and it starts slowly moving forward, we realize that we have only snacks in our bags and have completely forgotten to pack a meal for our journey!
