As Delhi grapples with irregular LPG supplies, restaurants across the capital face significant operational hurdles, from altering menus to soaring costs and wage concerns.

Many eateries are adapting by shifting to alternatives such as piped natural gas and induction cooking. However, continued disruptions could force smaller businesses to trim staff wages, threatening employment, especially in the unorganized sector.

Amid a widening West Asia conflict, government priorities center on domestic natural gas for LPG production, affecting supply across various industries. Industry insiders fear ongoing shortages could push some establishments to the brink if the situation doesn't improve.
