It would be hard not to notice this coffee stall located in the middle of Chinatown Complex. With a grinder to the rear of the auntie manning the stall, the roasted coffee beans would be poured into the grinder, ready for her to perform her 'tarik' (pulling) act on the coffee and tea. It was no wonder that there was a persisting queue for the coffee at all times of the day. On this instance, the gentleman in front of me ordered 8 cups at one go!My 'kopi-o-kosong' (Black coffee without sugar and
My 'kopi-o-kosong' (Black coffee without sugar and milk) was a high roast, full bodied cup of fresh brew that was rich yet smooth and did not leave my throat dry. It was definitely a surprising cup of mellow coffee, and at 90 cents per cup, it was definitely much better than the ones offered at high-class cafes from S$4 up. The 'kopi' (coffee with milk) was equally rich but having drank 'kopi-o-kosong' my entire life, it was a challenge for me to appreciate a brew with additives. Verdict: 8.5/10
(-) The milk tea however was somewhat lacking, whereby the taste of milk overwhelmed the aroma and fragrance of the tea. Verdict: 6.5/10
(-) Lack of fragrance from the coconut milk and pandan flavour was barely delectable. (-) The toast was too thick, which deprived the flavours of the kaya from being heightened at first bite.
Verdict: 6.0/10
