Sounds At A Typical Indian Restaurant

Sounds you hear at a typical Indian Restaurant:


• Glasses of water being kept on the table as soon as you sit

• A waiter dropping the laminated menu or a cushion-y menu with laminated pages inside

• Families discussing what to order

• Children crying

• Children being shushed

• Children playing with forks and spoons by banging them on the table

• Children running around

• Mothers taking their children to wash their hands at the basin

• Splashing of water

• Orders being placed

• Orders being repeated to confirm everything

• Cutlery being cleaned

• The sound of food bring stirred, pans being shifted, plates arriving at other tables

• An old telephone ringing at the cashier's desk

• Someone always talking to the cashier

• Sound of the mixer mixing, churning, creating milkshakes

• Fizz of the cold, soft drink after the glass bottle is opened

• Sound of the refrigerator being slammed

• Food being served

• More food being ordered

• Food being consumed

• Random conversations drifting from other tables

• Traffic noises from the road outside

• Asking the waiter to bring the bill

• Money being placed on a plate or a soft-bound cushion-y book

• Crunch of the sugar-coated fennel

• Table being cleared and swiped clean

• Your voice, your laughter

• My voice, my laughter

• Our conversation, our laughter
