Munna Tea Shop

The blue wooden facade of the Munna Tea Shop stands out against the dusty brick walls of Ansar Nagar. For over thirty years, Munna has served small glasses of ginger-heavy masala chai from this narrow stall. He spends his mornings boiling milk on a coal fire, adjusting the heat with a rusted iron poker. Locals crowd the pavement here, balancing steaming cups in their hands while discussing neighborhood news, keeping the kettle whistling from dawn until the tea runs dry by dusk.
