Nice ambient of old vibe kopitiam, situated in a quite backstreet. Went there on a Thursday, few old timers were having conversation, they were loud but I like it. The kopi was so so, was a little to sweet, did not have the usual hainan bitter and sour. I sensed a vibe of nutmeg in it. Roti goyang was good, roti kawin was OK. They will be moving to a new location View all feedback.
