Sumana Pan Beeda Stall

You can find us at the corner of Manjari Road in Nandini Layout, specifically in the Datta Colony area. It’s a small stall, nothing like a big store or anything fancy. We mostly serve people who live around here or those just passing through the Mahadev Nagar area on their way home. We keep all the different leaves and spices ready in little containers on the counter. It’s a bit of a tight space inside for us to work, but it works for what we do. Most of our business happens in the late evening when people are done with their dinner and want a beeda to finish the day. We have a few regular customers who stop by every single night at roughly the same time. The street outside can get a bit dusty with the traffic, but we keep our counter as clean as possible. We don't have a sign that lights up or anything like that, just the usual setup you'd see at any pan shop in the city. Sometimes people stand around and talk for a few minutes while we make their order. It’s a simple way to make a living and we enjoy talking to the neighbors. We’ve been at this same spot for a good bit now and everyone in the area knows where we are. We don't do any delivery or anything like that. If you want something, you just walk up to the window and ask. That's how it's always been for us.
