Even after a year, during which I did try several other brands of coffee, I still feel the same way. My year-long love affair with Old Town is the...

With the commonest ingredients and a toaster (or charcoal), you can easily whip up some toast and it doesn’t even take much time. More importantly, it is fuss-free! With toast, it gives me a good excuse not to learn cooking. My favourite is French toast that’s done...
