Exquisite

Exquisite is located on the lower ground level of Pulse-The Mall. It’s right on Nagar Road, which is almost always packed with cars and buses heading towards the city. We are situated right next to the Agakhan Palace, which is a big landmark that everyone knows. Being in the basement or lower level means it stays a bit cooler than the street outside, which is nice during the summer months in Pune. The mall isn't the biggest one around, but it has a steady flow of people looking for something different. We spend our days under the fluorescent lights, organizing our stock and chatting with the other shopkeepers on this floor. We are near 9th Main, around the Ideal Homes Circle area. It is a mix of residential and commercial vibes here. Most people who come into the shop are locals who are just taking a walk or visitors who just finished seeing the palace next door. The mall can be very quiet on Tuesday mornings and then suddenly get very loud on Sunday afternoons. We have a small counter where we sit when there aren't many people. It is a simple setup. We don't have any flashy displays or expensive decorations, just the items we have for sale and a place for people to look around at their own pace. We've been here for a while now, and we know the security guards and the cleaning staff by name.
