Here’s one of my best photos of the day. A streetside stall, selling noodles. The wooden cart, abundant garlands, uneven arranged alternate bottles of sauces, big metal pots, the menu written on the side of the cart, the bright naked bulb, a row of shoes

A streetside stall selling noodles. We can see a worn wooden cart which has seen its share of street life, perhaps growing old with the owner. He has hung lots of garlands all around the top of the cart, reminding me of the cab i was in earlier. Two mountains of noodles fill the dimpled large metal pots, plenty left for no customers. The owner has made some more effort at decoration – alternating bottles of red and yellow sauce are arranged neatly, although the bottles are of inconsistent shape. The menu is written on the lower half of the cart. Egg roll, hm, so that’s what it is. Towards the back, our attention is captured by the silhouette of a row of shoes hanging at the next cart. Looking carefully, we actually spot an Indian man sitting down. Perhaps.
