A YouTube Creator's post on restaurant's no-service-charge policy has gone viral for all the wrong reasons after the food bill he posted online stunned social media users. Ishan Sharma shared a photo of a restaurant receipt on X (formerly Twitter), highlighting the restaurant's decision to avoid charging a service fee. However, what caught the attention of the internet was the exorbitant total bill of Rs 10,030 for a seemingly ordinary North Indian meal.

The meal, which included five items-paneer khurchan, daal bhukhara, paneer makhani with khasta roti, and pudina parantha-came at a hefty price tag, with Sharma highlighting the "no service charge" note printed below the total. In his post, Sharma wrote, "Restaurants, take note!" praising the restaurant for its pricing model. 

He also shared a meal of his food spread and the menu of the restaurant. Take a look:

However, the reaction from social media users was far from positive. Many expressed shock and disbelief at the steep prices. One user pointed out that the Rs 2,900 charged for the paneer makhani alone seemed unreasonable, while another highlighted the Rs 1,125 bill for three paranthas. "Rs 10,000 is what most people would spend on a weekend getaway, not a single meal," remarked one user. Another commented humorously, "For the price you paid for the paneer, you could get a master's degree at Darbhanga University!"

The online backlash has sparked a debate about the rising costs of dining out in India, with many questioning whether such high prices are justified for a typical meal. While some supported the restaurant's no-service-charge policy, the shockingly high bill has dominated the conversation, with users suggesting that the money could be better spent elsewhere-perhaps on electronics or travel.

Here are some of the reactions:
