Before reels and ride apps, our evenings were cycle races, orange bars, and shouting from rooftops when it got dark.
A little perfume, a little dust, hot samosas nearby, and that old-market energy you somehow recognize in one breath.

It is not only the food. It is how neighbors dropped in without warning and somehow never felt like an interruption.
