Sharma Pan Palace

Sharma Pan Palace is a small shop located at Shop No 6 in Dadabari Santoshi Nagar. We are right there in the middle of the local community. The shop is quite compact, as most pan shops are, but we have everything we need inside. We spend our days preparing leaves and chatting with the people who stop by for a minute or two. Dadabari is a lively area and Santoshi Nagar has a lot of foot traffic. Being at Shop No 6, we are part of a little row of businesses that all know each other. We don't have any polished marketing or fancy signs. The name Sharma Pan Palace is just what is on the front. We see people from all walks of life, from workers on their way to a job to neighbors just out for a walk. The smell of tobacco and sweet spices is always present around our counter. We keep the jars lined up and the ingredients fresh. It is a simple way to earn a living, and we have been doing it this way for quite a while. There is no big mystery to how we run things. We just open up, greet the regulars, and make sure we have what they need. Sometimes the rain comes down hard and we all huddle under the small awning, but mostly it is just another day at the shop in Kota.
