Shukla Pan Palace

You can find us at Shukla Pan Palace in Karampura, near the Inder Lok area, specifically at 19A Moti Nagar. This area has a bit of everything, from industrial spots to residential blocks, so we get a real mix of people coming through. We’ve been at this location for a good while, and most of the locals know us by name. The shop isn't exactly a palace, despite the name, but we like to keep it as neat as we can. We spend our time prepping the kattha and washing the leaves so everything is ready for the evening rush. Usually, things pick up after six when people are coming back from work. There’s a lot of chatter around the shop as people wait for their turn. We’ve got a few stools out front, but most people just stand around and talk. It’s a friendly kind of place where you don't really need to say much to get what you want because we already know what our regulars like. The nearby metro station means there are always new people walking past too. We just keep our heads down and focus on making a good fold. It’s a simple business, really. No big tricks, just being here every day at the same time and making sure we don't run out of supplies. It's a nice little community to be part of.
