Delicious Lamb Stuffed Paratha for lunch

Though I had to beg for a knife to cut the dash thing.
They originally gave me a bamboo fork and spoon!
How will those things cut the paratha without it going everywhere?
She eventually found a plastic knife with a serrated edge.
Rules here are ridiculous, no metal cutlery for customers.
Is it the same where you are?
Knifes can be used as a deadly weapon.
This is called progress.
From what I am seeing of the modern world, there is a whole lot of regression taking place.

There would be an outcry here if they tried to ban metal cutlery!

@TheSirfurryanimalWales Still available in "proper" restaurants. Just not establishments that rely a lot on takeaways. Food halls are not allowed metal cutlery.

@Gusman
Food halls are not allowed metal cutlery.
That seems a bit extreme.

@ninalanyon It is the law here.
Because at sometime, someone stabbed a person with metal cutlery knife in a food hall.

@Gusman Still seems like an over-reaction seen from Norway where even though there is a general prohibition against carrying knives in public places we have this clarification:
Forbudet i første og annet ledd gjelder ikke skytevåpen, kniv eller annet redskap som brukes til, bæres eller medbringes i forbindelse med arbeid, friluftsliv eller et annet aktverdig formål.

Google Translate renders it so:
The prohibition in the first and second paragraphs does not apply to firearms, knives or other implements that are used, carried or carried in connection with work, outdoor activities or another respectable purpose.

A respectable purpose includes wearing a knife as part of your national costume in the parade on 17 May (Constitution Day) but also as an eight year old primary school child in a nature class that takes place in the woods.
