Chaar Dukan

Ever wonder, what is so special about a small little organization with just four very similar food stores. Simply put, it is the variety of food offered at these stores that catches the attention of Woodstock students. Although the climb up to the these stores especially from the dorms causes students much agony, and even surmounts most students to abhor the renowned hills of Mussoorie, the walk is worth it. One store at Chaar Dukan, is the most famous out of all the stores, not because of way the store was built, but because of the delicious food that it sells. Favorite to the taste of numerous students is what is known as Aloo Parantha. An amazing tasty potato bread sandwich that catches the attention of even those living in Dehradun. Another notorious dish created by a family man chef is the maggie with cheese. Although maggie comes at a cheep cost as well as cheese, and can be easily made within minutes in the dorms, the taste that comes from the Chaar Dukan store holds no comparison between the dorm food. Whatever additional nutrients, or flavors that are added into the dish, somehow entice the students into returning. Besides the food, the location of the stores, actually provides an amazing scenery in a relatively quite area with limited cars. Therefore, coming to Chaar Dukan proves to be an excellent choice because of not only the scenery, but also because of the delicious food. Furthermore, besides eating food at the store at an especially cheap cost, students may also buy "tuck." Unlike stores in the Bazaar, Chaar Dukan refrains from raising prices although it would be more beneficial for the store owners, therefore, buying "tuck" from these stores proves to be highly beneficial for the students. The question remains, however, is how far are students willing to go in order to be able to eat at Chaar Dukan since students are banned from going for pretty much the whole week?
