If you know Jadavpur, you know how Raja S C Mullick Road can get. Our shop, Fresh & Fast, is tucked into Shop No-8B right along that stretch. It’s a small space, but we try to keep it as tidy as possible given how much dust comes off the road. Jadavpur is always moving, so we see a lot of students and people working nearby. We aren't trying to be the biggest place on the block, just a steady one. Every morning starts with a lot of heavy lifting and getting things set up before the crowds start moving. The fans are always humming in the background to keep the air moving. We spend a lot of time looking out the door at the traffic while we wait for the next person to come in. It’s a lot of manual work, honestly. We don't have fancy systems or anything like that. Just us, the counter, and the stock we have for the day. Sometimes we talk about the local news with whoever stops by for a minute. It’s a decent enough way to spend the day, even if it gets a bit tiring by the evening. We just close up, clean the floor, and get ready to do it all over again tomorrow. It’s just the reality of running a small shop in a busy part of town. Sometimes the deliveries are late, which can be annoying, but we just wait it out.
