A person wrote, "Indians in the comment section ASSEMBLE".

"This is a compartment plate which people have in India. The main skit holds rice and the rest are for salads, veggies, gravies and even a slot for dessert. Keeps each dish separate and easy to spoon into the rice. Every Indian household (including mine) has these plates. If you order an Indian thali (full meal) in an Indian restaurant, this is the plate they will serve you in. Near and organized. Looks very sturdy and good," a comment read.
