Academic ranking, good faculty and modern facilities only play a limited role in making college life what it is for students. Ask any college graduate on what the best part of their college life or what their best memory was from those three years, the answers would resonate with similarity. Some of the best friendships and most cherished memories were made fighting over that last bite of samosa, settling bills doing ‘jugaad’ with the canteen bhaiya or bunking class to just hang out in the canteen! This is how in a one of a kind extensively researched survey conducted by Market Excel Data Matrix among 500 students came up the ranking of the Top 10 Canteens in Delhi University.
