Its the coffee filter used here that you have described. Its very much Indian..Vietnamese also might use it. In Tamil Nadu, this filter is used. and not percolator. just thought of sharing it with you. Hi,

Rs. 200 for a cup of coffee? Well, I think I'll ask someone to take me out on a treat. :D I definitely am not comfortable shelling out Rs. 200 for a cup of coffee!! At least, as of now...

I don't know how authentic it is, but there is a hotel called as "Ista" in Ulsoor (It stands where the old Lido theater used to stand). You can try there. I have been there once and I do remember seeing many varieties of coffee in their menu. Btw, it costs 200/- per one serving of coffee :D Hmm..

By the way, I'm a South Indian, and my mom prepares coffee the exact same way. The only difference is the shape of the container. The container here is placed directly on the cup into which the strained coffee pours out. We South Indians, on the other hand, strain out the coffee into a different container, and then pour the contents into a cup. Well, all said, I love coffee, no matter how it's prepared (except for those instant coffee powders). :-) PizzaDude: Long time no see! :-) Well, if you brought a Vietnamese here, they might say this is the way coffee is made in Vietnam.
