They preferred the non-corner shops as they were 'Gau-mukhi' or shaped like a cow's face - a very auspicious shape for Hindus. The corner shops were thus available for much cheaper rates and Parsis all over the city took up these shops and several of them were turned into Irani restaurants, a few of which have survived the advent of modernity.
