It may seem ludicrous that such a standard should even exist—but ponder this: In scientific experiments where participants must drink tea, how else can you be sure that tea made and consumed in one country is the same as in another? Americans mostly drink their tea without milk; Indians opt for a beverage that is heavily sugared and spiced, steeping the leaves in warm milk.

Excuse me what!? I haven’t seen a standard (flat head) wood screw in quite a while except when I take apart walls. there almost all Robinson(square) or Phillips(cross).

Qaiser Hotel, which is still located on Pakistan Chowk, was best known for palak gosht and raan. Although western food was not as popular as it is today, Shezan, one of the first restaurants to be air-conditioned, served chicken sandwiches and later at Shezan Ampis, ‘chicken flying saucers’ made with plenty of green chillies for extra zing. Shezan also made birthday cakes, which were a rarity and only available at a few other places such as Metropole Hotel. The most commonly available cakes were the yellow pound cakes, which are still found at many bakeries today.
