Qq Kopitiam - Pasadena

The laksa is as good as the one I ate at Singapore, and I prefer it than the Kway Teow Also, they stop selling fried food about 30 mins before they close, which is very early

I heard many good words about Singapore food and felt very interested to try it. This is a small restaurant featuring signature Singapore dishes, like laksa a very flavorful noodle soup with balanced creamy and spicy tastes. It’s so unique and very different from other southeastern Asian food. I felt I want to visit Singapore one day after eating in here. The dining area is small but clean (no ice water provided though). But given the food quality and sweet price point, I wouldn’t expect more.

A small place for taste of what's like of getting some Singaporean Street Food. Selections is limited. Ingredients could be more fresher. Hours are limited to week days only. A huge potential if more varieties and more days could be added.

Me and my Neighbors were all quarantined for 2 weeks due to COVID. We finally all tested negative. We love ethic foods so we decided to celebrate by visiting different restaurants. I wanted Malaysian/Singaporean food. We already celebrated going out to diner to a Thai Restaurant the previous night. So, we decided to do lunch. The Malaysian/Singaporean Restaurants that I used to go were all closed down due to COVID. Luckily, one of the neighbors is from Malaysia. She also could not locate the Malaysian Restaurants she used to go. This COVID did a number on these restaurants. She called around and asked her Malaysian/Singaporean friends. Two friends recommended QQ Kopitiam in Pasadena. So, we went. We live in Long Beach area. Pasadena is a good 50 minutes drive and we hit two accidents on the way. The restaurant is small. Parking is on the streets. However, the food is great. This is not a fancy restaurant but quite authentic. This is the kind of food you would get in the streets of Malaysia or Singapore. We ordered Singapore Laksa, Indonesian Fried Rice, Char Kway Teow, Hokkien Mee, Fried Tofu and Shrimp Egg Roll for a party of four. We also have 4 ice coffees and a lychee drink. We cleaned the plates. The food was that good. It is a long drive for us but we plan to go back. If anyone who wants to try South Eastern Asian Food. This is worth a trip to explore. Just be aware this is mostly a take-out restaurant. It would not be able to accommodate a large party.

Excellent and tasty singaporean and indonesian food. Their singaporean char kway teow #11) and laksa 10) are really good. Price is very resonable and location is convenient across from Pasadena city college
