This is probably my favorite hidden gem in Houston that I have only grown fonder and fonder of over the past year I have been here due to one main reason: always available, steaming hot, karak cha (strong tea).

I think you should improve your staff efficiency as most of the people they come from far away to take pleasure of Pan which is not upto...
Read moreMay the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. This place is unclean, and it is advised that believers not enter it. All kinds of forbidden and prohibited things are sold there, and its owner thinks that his livelihood is lawful, while he sells tobacco, cigarettes, and very dirty things. Even the tea is bad. Please leave the place, and stop fooling around and wasting time. For your information, all the food is not lawful. I mean the meat and chicken, which are made at home.
