A gallo
Saturday, August 20, 2005
Seriously it is, just like back home. It's a Pan-no-gallo.
Laxmi sells pan, cigarettes, sugarcane juice, rakhees in season, candy, mukhwas, etc.
The draw isn't the pan .. well it is .. what really draws is that feeling of being in India. The place is surrounded by tell-tale red spots [no spittoon here! and if there was, the Desi's probably wouldn't use it]. The men hang around while their women shop in nearby grocery, Saree, and jewelry stores.
Located right between the two parking lots, it's where you stop off in the way in and again on the way out. At least that what my cousin insists on doing .. then he gets a few packed up for the fridge at home.
