Have you ever pondered on the infinite wisdom in the statement that "simplicity is the best sophistication?" This is true in many facets of life, none more so than in food. After traveling the world, eating at Michelin starred restaurants, experimenting with molecular food and such like, isn't it really interesting how mother's food is ultimately the best? Ever gone back from a trip abroad to pig out on dal chaawal all or khichdi or rasam rice?
I think coffee and toast fall in the same category. In a small family owned cafe in Porto, Portugal, we had hot buttered toast made from homemade bread and espresso macchiato (called "pingo" in Portugal) - most satisfying breakfast ever!
