Chocolate + coffee = a bouncy, happy and very satisfied me. I had recently gone to USA as part of a press trip organized by Kohler, and apart from the press conferences and roundtable discussions the journalists were treated to…there was also a whole lot of food. One of the places that has firmly ensconced…

Barista training with Costa and a Flat White
I don’t remember the first time I had coffee, but I’m guessing it was probably near my 10th or 12th CBSE Board exams, when staying up late cramming was the way to go, understanding anything be damned.

RAW Coffee Company, I pledge eternal love to thee

My mother’s concoction – the only dessert I can make without fear of messing up.
Barista for a day!
I went for the Barista training class offered by my university and thoroughly enjoyed all 2.5 hours. I made an espresso, a latte, a cappuccino and an iced mocha latte. We could drink what we made but I could only manage a handful of sips for each. Even so, that night I was completely wired!…
