Within less than a year of its advent into the Indian market, IKEA has already left a huge impact on people. Though this mighty firm earned a bright name in the area of furniture shopping, the quality of its food service was at stake. This happened after a disturbing incident which has taken place before five months.
Anyway, now, finally, after a gap of nearly five months, vegetarian biryani returned to the menu of Swedish home furnishing retailer IKEA here on Thursday. In September last year, IKEA's had stopped selling vegetarian biryani at its store here found a foreign object in a dish.
Talking about the same, John Achillea, the Hyderabad store manager of IKEA India went saying, "Today is the first day we have started reselling vegetarian biryani".
He told reporters that they were making this dish in the house and it is available for Rs 99 like in the past. IKEA's first India, which is completing six months in February, was earlier sourcing prepared veg biryani from Haldiram of Nagpur.
The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) had fined the IKEA store Rs 11,500 after a customer lodged a complaint that he found a caterpillar in veg biryani served to him at the IKEA restaurant.
The furnishing giant subsequently removed the veg biryani from its menu and stated that it takes food safety and quality very seriously. IKEA opened its first India store here on August 9. It has a 1,000-seater restaurant, which by far is considered as one of the biggest of its kind.
