Ever wondered what sustains those hardy Cisco engineers? A veggie Indian lunch at Tirupathi Bhimas, located near Cisco’s Milpitas, Calif., campus, is the favorite.
According to the restaurant’s review in Metroactive, ” Push your way into the crowded, sparsely decorated dining room and everyone, it seems, has a Cisco ID badge dangling from their neck or belt.”
The restaurant’s specialty is vegetarian food from South India, particularly that of Andra Pradesh, a spicy and aromatic cuisine that has been influenced by the Middle East, reports Metroactive. “The restaurant does serve some North Indian dishes and even a few “Indo-Chinese” items like vegetarian chop suey and gobi “manjurian,” but I and most of my 100 or so Cisco friends came for the South Indian food.”
Cisco engineers are happy that they don’t have to make a dent in their Cisco stock to dine at the restaurant – the price range is $5.50 to $9.
