Diner's Cottage

Diner's Cottage is located right in the Vijay Nagar area. It’s a place that stays pretty busy because of the neighborhood. We don't have a massive staff, so everyone ends up doing a bit of everything. One minute you might be helping in the kitchen and the next you are wiping down a table or checking on a guest. The kitchen is the heart of the place, and it gets quite hot and loud in there during the dinner rush. We have a few regular customers who come in almost every day, and we usually know what they want before they even sit down. The furniture is simple and comfortable, nothing too fancy that makes you feel like you can’t relax. We spend a lot of time cleaning, though it feels like as soon as we finish, another rush starts. There is always the smell of something cooking, which is nice, but it sticks to your clothes by the end of the shift. We have had to fix the plumbing a few times lately, and some of the chairs are starting to show their age, but it adds to the feel of the place. It’s just a local spot where people can get a meal without any fuss. We keep the lights a bit low in the evening to make it feel more like home for whoever walks in. It’s not perfect, but it’s our little corner of the city.
