Chauhan Tent Decorators & Caterers

Down in Prahladpur Sharma Market, you can find us at Shop 28. It’s a busy spot and we’ve been working out of here for quite a while. We focus mostly on tents and catering for folks in the neighborhood. Usually, the day starts with loading up the truck with bamboo poles and thick rolls of colorful cloth. It gets pretty sweaty work, especially in the summer heat, but we’re used to it. The kitchen side is just as hectic. We have a few cooks who have been with us for years, and they know exactly how to handle the big tandoors. We don't use any fancy machines, just hand-cooking and traditional ways of doing things. When we do the decorations, we try to keep it simple but sturdy. If a customer wants a certain color, we go look through our bundles of fabric until we find it. Sometimes the shop gets a bit cluttered with all the catering gear and stacks of plates, but we know where everything is. We don’t spend money on big ads or anything like that. People just hear about us from their neighbors or see us setting up a tent down the street. It’s just us, working hard to make sure the food is ready and the guests have a roof over their heads for the night. We stay until the last plate is washed and the tent comes down.
