An X post about a long list of rules for customers at an Irani cafe in Pune has gone viral and sparked humorous reactions online. An X user shared a photo showing the cafe's menu partially. Below the category of "Cutlets," we see the list of prohibited actions which are prefaced with the statement: "No is a complete sentence and it does not require justification." What follows is a list with 21 varied instructions about what is not allowed on the premises of this establishment. From generic protocols like not permitting outside foods to bizarrely specific ones prohibiting "flirting with the cashier," - the list is quite fascinating in its range. Here are all the rules, as per the picture attached in the post:
- "No laptop
- No charging points
- No smoking
- No carry bags
- No credit
- No outside foods
- No talking loud
- No bargaining
- No asking change
- No matchsticks
- No discussing gambling
- No combing
- No digging nose
- No brushing teeth
- No leg on chair
- No sleeping
- No running away
- No gum under table
- No mobile games
- No flirting with cashier
- No free advice."

“No flirting with cashier” still intrigues me what must've happened to put that up ?
Their cashier is an uncle atm
The cashier in Pune is an old uncle and definitely doesn't want anyone to flirt with him lol

No brushing teeth is my favorite
