Mohit in a racist Indian restaurant!

Recently, one evening, Mohit was in an Indian restaurant with a
colored
woman of Indian origin. Apparently, the woman's favorite was a spicy
chicken
dish, with nan, and cucumber salad to go with it. And, Mohit wanted to
get
his favorite lamb biriyani that normally comes with the raita.
Interestingly,
when the dinner was served, there was no cucumber salad, nor was there
any raita with the biriyani! Mohit could quickly sense it was a racist
service.
He had to remind the waiters couple of times to get the salad, almost
when
they had finished eating. He had assumed this restaurant probably
required
customers to order for raita separately, so he had not urged for it.
But, the
darker of the two waiters suggested at the time of handing over the
check
that the raita should have been served with the biriyani within the
same
order. This made Mohit rather annoyed, and he didn't want to give any
tip,
No Raita No Tip! But, the colored woman with him did not appreciate
Mohit's
position, and suggested it would be "cheap" not to give a tip! She
almost
forced Mohit to offer a tip. Mohit felt bad because it compromised his
spirit.
