Another addition to peculiar happening in India is the New Lucky restaurant in Ahmedabad, which is more than 50 years old and is built around graves and coffins. Yes, you heard me right! This particular tea stall or little food joint, located in the Lal Darwaza region of Ahmedabad, has coffins and food tables sitting right next to each other. Though these coffins are sealed with iron grills, it does look a little weird. But surprisingly people don’t find it unusual and one of their regular customers had been none other than the renowned artist M.F Husain.

Husain Paintings

As a mark of respect, the restaurant has also hanged one of Husain’s paintings to grace the interiors. As per the restaurant’s manager, Husain loved drinking tea at their restaurant and every time he visited Ahmedabad, he would make sure to visit the restaurant. Husain once mentioned in an interview that Lucky Restaurant gave him the "feeling of life and death", which is simply commendable.

 

Unusual Experience

This fact has only helped the owner of the food joint, Krishnan Kutti, a lot in terms of fame and wealth. Curious travellers and foodies make sure to pay a visit to this offbeat restaurant in Ahmedabad. He says that the restaurant flourished only because of the cemetery and instead of removing the coffins, he placed dining tables around them so not to disturb the dead. Kutti believes that the graveyard has been lucky for him and it’s because of these graves that his restaurant is doing so well. A number of people come here in search of some unusual experiences. And the best part is that even the customers don’t mind sitting next to these graves and relishing their food.

 

Sufi Saints Graves

There are 12 graves inside the restaurant and locals believe that these graves belong to some Sufi saints from the 16th century. Waiters here decorate these graves with fresh flowers each day after cleaning them and pay their respects. They believe that respecting the deceased is extremely important and so they do whatever it takes to preserve these graves.
