  • It's a battle between the old and the new, the west versus the east and even socialism versus capitalism . The Indian Coffee House has been around for more than 50 years, but as the number of modern cafes proliferate the co-operative based business is feeling the squeeze of competition. Howard Johnson has been along to Kolkata's famous College Street branch to see how it - and its smaller franchises are faring. My website: bit.ly/p3zsT8
