Rate and Food quality in Bhartiya Rail

Most of time we have seen that the quality of Food provided by the Bhartiya Railways are not good , even we are paying them more. Rate of the foods are also not fixed , most of the times they are serving the same food to passengers on different rates. In VIP Trains like Shatabdi, Duranto, Rajhdhani etc . vendors are asking for the Tips (INR 100, 50, 150 Etc), if you will not give them then they will start misbehaving. Railway have to take serious action against these issues.
It is also my request to provide the Food Menu (incl. rates) of trains with Tickets or anyone can see the rates on IRCTC website or the vendors have the rates list . It will help anyone to know what are the items available in the train with rates. more  

Different Vendors charge different rates of similar item in train in comparison of IRCTC rates. more  
The quality of food and it's weight it not as per standards agreed at the time of entering agreement with railways by the contractors. Their no system in force to check this. Vendors are looting Rs 1.5 crore daily from passengers by selling tea/ coffee at Rs 10 instead of Rs 7 asper the rates approved and agreed by the contractors while entering agreement.Vendors and TTES SHOULD show the pricelist of each and every item sold in trains and stations.Can railway Minister look into this aspect and prevent this public loot .This is only one example, the loot is more if all the items sold by the venders take into account. more  
The Quality of Food in Sadabti Express is very bad. On 14th I was traveling from Chennai to Salem and the qualit of idle and sambar is so poor. We pay fairly good amount to Railways for the additional facilities given to us. We can not do any thing with the contractor who,has taken the catering and how can we spot such acts, how to educate the servers who give food to us in the train for better quality food. There should be some fear in the minds of the contractor who has taken catering. The quality of Food should be given by the passengers by issuing a questionare this should be electronic device which can record and should be done by other than the contractor to his men. And the punishment or,penalty should make them do better. more
