Planet Noodle

We are situated in Kailash Nagar at 2226/58. It’s a bit of a tight spot, but we make it work. Most of the day is spent boiling water and tossing noodles in the pan. The steam makes the windows fog up when it's cold outside. I’m usually the one handling the orders while someone else works the stove. We use a lot of plastic containers because most people take their food home to eat. The floor in the kitchen area is always a bit slippery, so we have to be careful where we step. I’ve lived in Kailash Nagar for a long time, so I know most of the people who walk past the door. Some of them stop just to say hello even if they aren't buying anything. We don't have a lot of room for people to sit, maybe just a couple of stools if they're lucky. The spices we use can make you sneeze if you stand too close to the wok. It’s a simple setup. I spend a lot of time checking the stock of vegetables and making sure we don't run out of sauce. It's not a fancy job, but it keeps us busy from afternoon until late at night. Sometimes we stay open a bit longer if there’s a crowd out on the street. It just depends on the day.
