Sri Venkateshwara Sweets

We are located in Rajajinagar at Plot No 347/2 2961. This shop has been part of the street for quite some time. Every morning starts with the delivery of fresh milk and sugar. We have a couple of guys in the back who have been making these sweets since they were young. They don't need recipes anymore, they just know the feel of the dough. The glass counters are always getting smudged with fingerprints from kids looking at the trays, so we keep a cloth handy at all times. Around the holidays, it gets really hectic and we barely have room to move behind the counter. We spend hours folding cardboard boxes and stacking them up high in the corner. Sometimes the phone rings off the hook with people asking if we have specific items in stock. We tell them to just come by and see. The lighting inside is a little yellowish, which gives everything a warm look. We don't have a big seating area, just enough for someone to wait while we pack their order. My father used to run things here and I took over about five years ago. It’s a lot of work and my back usually aches by closing time. We don't do any big advertising, people just know we are here on this plot. It’s just a honest living selling things people like to eat for celebrations. We try to keep things organized but it gets messy when we are busy.
