Tastee Masala

If you ever go down Karur By Pass Road, you might see us at 53/2 in the Pravish Plaza. We are right by the Railway Colony, so you can always hear the trains passing by. It is quite loud sometimes, but we have gotten used to the vibration of the floor. The shop is usually full of the smell of different masalas being packed. We spend most of our hours weighing things out on small scales and filling up packets. My hands usually smell like coriander and cloves by the end of the day. The plaza itself is a busy spot with people always coming and going from the station. We have a small desk in the corner where we do the paperwork, and it is usually piled high with receipts and notebooks. It is not the most organized place in the world, but we know where everything is. Sometimes the electricity goes out for a bit, and we just sit by the doorway to catch the light. It is just a regular local business trying to keep up with the demand from the local kitchens. We don’t bother with big advertisements or anything like that. People just know we are here because of the spicy scent that drifts out onto the road. It is a simple life, and we like the people we meet every day.
