In his story, Vendor of Sweets, author RK Narayan gives a crash course on how to make an honest cup of south Indian filter coffee. On one of his visits to the United States, at a coffee counter, the author was asked, “Black or white?” “Neither,” replied Narayan. “I want it brown. That’s how we make it in South India.”

Votaries of this favourite beverage in South India perhaps resonate with Narayan’s sentiment. And maybe that’s why the south has become a favourable landscape for coffee shops to cater to the palate of coffeeholics. Case in point is the opening of Third Wave Coffee’s 46th store in the city at the Phoenix Mall of Asia, Bengaluru. The mall which opened to the denizens of Bengaluru on 27 October is now home to Third Wave Coffee’s 109th outlet in India.
