Shocking! Mumbai Man Served Beef Rice Instead Of Fish Pothichoru, Zomato Responds To Food Blunder

In a shocking food blunder, a man from Mumbai placed an online order for a fish-based meal only to receive something unacceptable to him. Named Sabin, the customer asked for a Kerala-style 'Fish Pothichoru' from a restaurant in Powai but he was served with beef instead of fish. As he unwrapped his parcel and saw red meat chunks, he was left disturbed and expressed about dumping the food into the dustbin straight away, stating he would not consume beef due to religious reasons.

Beef rice delivered instead of fish dish

It is unclear where the order went wrong. Sabin ordered the fish dish through Zomato, but got delivered beef rice home. "I don't eat beef I want to file complaint," he said while pointing out the erred food delivery to the food app's customer care service. Raising an issue with the order, the customer shared a couple of videos and photos seeking a resolution. The visuals showed that the man was served with a rice containing beef pieces, which he hadn't asked for.
