Who doesn’t love the aroma of
freshly ground coffee? And what about the healthy warm feeling that only a steaming
cup of tea can provide? Well, the students of Good Shepherd Finishing School attended a
workshop on Tea and Coffee, conducted by Chef Udaya Sankar on 27 February,
2014. The workshop was divided into 2 sessions – the first session was on
Coffee, and the second on Tea. From berry picking to the grinding of coffee
beans to indulging in different types of Coffee, the session was highlighted
with utmost passion on the art of Coffee making and
different types of not only beverages but also Desserts made out of Coffee. The
session rounded off with a Demo on how to use the ‘Espresso machine’.
Following a very interesting
story of how tea was discovered, the students were given many tips and advices
pertaining to brewing of tea and coffee, their health benefits and so on. So
much so that even students who have not had tea and coffee participated
in the ‘tasting’ that happened, winding up the work shop.
