Online shopping oddity

Last night I placed an order for 2 pooris with potato masala from Bakya Restaurant, Valasaravakkam, here in Chennai, via Swiggy. It cost Rs 100 according to Swiggy list. As usual, I had to pay extra for delivery. I paid Rs 174 via Google Pay. 

When my beloved brother was alive, I have eaten at the restaurant and found the quality of Pooris to be good. 

But this time, when I tried to eat the pooris, it looked like rotis; potato masala had very bad taste. Hence I rated the product as '1' on their 5 point scale.

I think that senior citizens married to caring wives are very fortunate.
