Ailaiah Mutton Shop

My shop is at House Number 1-52 in the Rajapally area of Narsampet. It’s not a big fancy store, just a regular mutton shop where I spend most of my day. I’ve been here for many years, and most of the people who come in are my neighbors or folks from just down the road. I get up very early to make sure everything is ready for the morning rush. The shop is simple, with just the wooden chopping blocks and the scales. I don't have any big advertisements or a website. People know me because I’ve been standing behind this counter for so long. Narsampet is a nice place to live and work, even if it gets quiet sometimes in the afternoons. When the festivals come around, the shop gets very crowded and it’s a lot of work to keep up with everyone. I have a couple of boys who help me out when things get busy. We talk to the customers about their families and the local news while we work. It’s a noisy place with all the talking and the sound of the work going on. The floor is concrete and we wash it down several times a day. It’s an honest way to make a living and I don’t plan on changing much. If you walk through Rajapally, you’ll find us easily enough just by asking around. Usually, there is a cat waiting outside for scraps. We stay open until the meat is gone.
