What is the hostel of NIT Trichy like?

Well, it completely depends on your expectation, what you are used to. If you expect epicure meals or similar taste as home-cooked food, then you will be definitely disappointed.

• You have to pay rupees 80 for an unlimited buffet and the quality of the food, in that case, will be quite different. However, you will not be disappointed at all with the food variety.
• Moreover, there are generally four mess boys; two out of them serve North Indian Food, and the rest two serve South Indian Dishes. 
• Each of these messes is operated by altered cooking companies. 

Therefore, students choose to select the mess they will dine at; so that the caterer can make tasty and good quantity food for them, as there is a competition.
