Gupta Chat Corner

You can find us in Bhojpur Lalganj. We’ve been serving snacks here for a good while. It started out small, just a little setup on the side. Now, we have a proper spot where people gather in the evenings. It gets pretty crowded around sunset when everyone finishes work. We don't have fancy menus or anything like that. People just know what we have. Most of the day is spent prepping. Chopping potatoes, making the chutneys, and getting the spices right. It’s hot work, standing near the heat all day, but we're used to it by now. The smell of the spices stays on your clothes long after you go home. We have a few benches, but most people prefer to stand and eat. It’s a social thing for the neighborhood. You see the same faces every day. Sometimes we run out of things early if it's a busy Tuesday. We don't have a big staff, just family and a helper or two. The floor gets a bit messy with paper plates, but we sweep up when we can. It’s a simple life. We wake up early to go to the market for fresh stuff. If the weather is bad, fewer people show up, but that’s how it goes. We’re just a local corner shop trying to keep everyone fed. It’s hard work, but we like being part of the community here in Lalganj. We usually close up once the last batch is finished.
