Sai Siddhi Restaurants

If you know the Mitramandal Chowk area in Pune, you probably know how busy it gets. Our place sits right near Patil Plaza, just across from the Navedum Hotel in Parvati. It’s a lot of work keeping up with the crowds that come through this part of the city. We start our day when it is still quiet outside, getting the kitchen ready and making sure everything is in its place. Once the traffic starts picking up on the road, the restaurant fills up pretty fast. We have people stopping by for a quick bite before work or families coming in later on. It is a bit of a squeeze sometimes, especially during the weekend rush. The floors get scuffed and the noise level goes up, but we just keep serving. We don't have any big corporate plans, we just run the place day by day. Most of us have been working here together for a good bit of time. We know the neighbors and the people who work in the offices nearby. Sometimes the orders get a little backed up when it is raining or when there is a festival going on at the chowk. We do what we can to keep everyone fed. It is a simple life here in Parvati, just cooking food and making sure the lights stay on and the customers are okay. We don't really have a big fancy sign, just the name above the door and plenty of chairs inside.
