I liked
The street behind the famous Writers' Building in Calcutta has now become a place for roadside vendors. They sleep on benches outside their stalls at night, and work to earn during the day.
This is the best place to go for a rejuvenating cup of tea. The coal fires are burning, tea is being prepared in huge pans, stools are spread out on footpaths, guys are running around with 'kulhars' of tea, and Audis and Mercedes are rolling in and out: all for the love of chai.
