PRACHICO FOODS & RESORTS PRIVATE LIMITED

If you head out toward Mastipur in the Bodh Gaya block, you will find where we set things up. Prachico Foods & Resorts Private Limited is run by the family, and Kumar Ravi Shankar’s wife is the one who mostly looks after the paperwork and the ground stuff. We are tucked away in the village area, which is a bit different from the crowded parts of the main town. It is a mix of a place to eat and a place to stay, though we don't try to make it sound more grand than it actually is. The village of Mastipur has a certain rhythm to it, and we just try to fit in with that. People come by when they want some regular food or a room that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. We have been working on the building and the kitchen for a while, just trying to make it comfortable for anyone who stops in. The roads around here can be a bit dusty depending on the season, but that is just life in the Gaya district. We don't have a big corporate office or anything like that. It is just us working out of the village, serving the people who pass through or the locals who need a spot for a small gathering. Most days it is just quiet work, getting the supplies in and making sure the guests have what they need for the night. We usually have a few people from the village helping us out in the kitchen.
