Buying eggs in Mumbai


I was new to Mumbai, when one fine day I needed some eggs. I walked into the local grocery store just to find that they dont sell eggs. Oh yes, they sell bread and  butter and cheese and mayo. But no eggs.

Where should I buy eggs from? I asked.

"From the woman sitting under the tree near the railway crossing", he replied, as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

Sure enough, there she was, with a basket full of eggs.

Life in mumbai is full of surprises...
