Stepped out for an afternoon walk between rain showers and ended up stopping for chai and mangos near Chota Imambara. It's high mango season here now, and I've been purchasing a kilo every couple days. Along with kebabs and biryani, Lucknow is famous for its abundance of the fruit. The chatty chaiwala at Kashmiri Chai advised that Deshari are the tastiest of the local varietals, so after finishing my second cup I walked across the street and acquired a kilo for fifty rupees. Light rain began to fall as the vendor and I exchanged bills. Mangos in hand, I made for the flat past the bustling shops and food stalls lining Imambara Road.
