The perfect coffee 3

I went to Fergusson College Road yesterday. Still looking. Ended up at Vaishali. Now this was very close to what I am looking for. I finally found South Indian filter coffee. The only hitch was that it was too watery. The sugar was just right, the coffee flavour was strong.. If only it wasn't so watery, this could've been IT.

We walked further down FC Road and reached this small place called Amu coffee. Recommended to me by Vishal Menda, for its amazingly cheap, really good cold coffee, I was expecting a lot. And the place delivered. Only 10 rupees and we got a glass of cold, refreshing, great coffee. Now I had to try the hot coffee too. It costed 8 rupees and was milky but too sweet. But I would definitely recommend this tiny place tucked away in a corner of FC Road for it's cold coffee.

Haven't found it yet. I actually think that now even if I make my own coffee I won't think it's perfect :D Maybe I'm expecting too much from one cuppa.

Well, the search continues...

Yea.. see there is this problem... i don't think it's about the coffee anymore ;)
So while we were all waiting as you were sipping Vaishali, one of us was hoping it wouldn't be IT.. because then we'll just have one less reason to go to all these interesting places!
And the Amu place. Ayesha misses an important observation.. the cold chocolate (10p.c.) has an after-taste so strong, you'd think 10 times before ordering chocolate anywhere again :|
Glad the search continues!!
