Now i can see a lot of queries coming from you regarding this topic. So here it goes....-
To almost all freshers, mess food tastes great for starting 2 months. However this will be your greatest foe for rest of your 4yrs. Believe me....you will starve for hat home made meal that you want to run away from now. So here it is-
1. Breakfast-
Breakfast generally includes pao bhaji, idli sambhar, paranthas, puri with chhole, bread and butter. Bread and butter is also optional on 3 days a week along with options such as banana,omelet,boiled egg. Milk or coffee or tea is are provided every day. Now breakfast menu for Saturday and Sunday,both, is sambhar dosa with tea or coffee.
2. Lunch-
Lunch includes chapatis (having butter on 2 days),curd, pulses ,rice and sambhar every day. Except these, special items which are included (not every day)are lemon or fried rice,rajma,cauliflower,ladyfinger,bottle gourd,custard,vegetable raita,paapad,fingers...etc.
3. Brunch-
Note that no brunch is provided.
4. Dinner-
Dinner also includes chapatis (having butter on 2 days),curd, pulses ,rice and sambhar every day. Except these some special items as mentioned above in lunch. Also sweet dish are provided 2 days a week. Now these can be rasgoola or gulab jamun.
(Note that this menu is basically for Kapili hostel. Also subansiri (girl`s hostel)has the same menu as Kapili. For rest hostels the menu basic menu stays same with small changes in special items provided.)
Here is the mess menu for Manas hostel. Do have a look-

isn't there an availability for non veg eaters?
ReplyDeleteOh yes there is availability for non veg food. Its provided as an option in dinner twice a week. The dishes are chicken and egg kadhi.
DeleteSorry i forgot to mention it as i am veg ...so it almost slipped out of my mind.
My only question is that the food provided by messes are sufficient for vegetarians or not? As we heard about North East that there is majority of non vegans,is it same in IIT Guwahati...
Deleteare u sure about ''non-veg only twice a week and that too only chicken,no mutton?''
ReplyDeleteYes i am pretty sure about it for B.TECH boys hostel like kapili, manas, siang, barak, umiam, kameng, and dihing.
DeleteYou can also look the mess menu which i have put in the section under "Overview of hostels" under Manas.
Hope your query is answered.
I'm pure veg. Don't like to take even onion and garlic. Can I have any option or get food like that in the mess?
ReplyDeletePure veg - that's not a problem. Almost 80% are pure veg here. But yes, without onion and garlic...you need to compromise on that. And i think you SHOULD start eating onion and garlic because...dude you are moving out of your home..and you cannot just avoid onion and garlic everywhere. Hope this helps.
DeleteDo we get Jain food in IITG
ReplyDeleteI am pure vegetarian. So can I have any option in iitg hostels get veg food??
ReplyDeleteDude..don't worry about that. Even i am veg but i never face any problem.
Deleteare u talking about mix mess? I mean mixing of veg and non-veg?
DeleteI am pure veg so can I get pure only (means there should be mess in which nothing should be non-veg).
i am from andhra ,i have rice for lunch and dinner.will i get more rice without roti
ReplyDeleteYes, you will get plenty of it.
Deleteif i dont like mess food where else can i eat(both in and out campus but in vicinity)
ReplyDeletePlenty of options available. For you to explore :P
DeleteHello. Would you please let me know if a student who is considered for JRF, will be allowed to stay in campus? If yes, which hostel will be provided to male candidates having considered for JRF??
ReplyDeleteYes, he will be staying in one of the hostels. Though I do not know which one.
DeleteCool. Thanks

ReplyDeleteIf parents of any student visit campus to meet his child. Are the parents of a student allowed to stay with student (boy) in hostle room or there is facility of guest house in IIT Guwahati?
ReplyDeleteguest house is there.
Deletebut to save money u can stay with ur son as long as u want till he lives in the college, but u need to pay ur mess bill.
Why don't students at IIT Guwahati do something. Its one of the worst in terms of management. Food is shit, I have been student of IIT Kanpur and Bombay. Everything at IIT Guwahati is costly even when compared to Mumbai. It worse than most of the NIT's just got name IIT attached to it.
ReplyDeleteHow many students live in a room?
ReplyDelete1 per room for boys, and 2 per room for girls
