Old Town Kopitiam Mamak
We have been awaiting the opening of Old Town Kopitiam in QV for the last few months, especially after spending a couple of weeks in Malaysia recently and reacquainting ourselves with the joys of kaya toast. Finally made it there for breakfast this morning, which actually turned out to be lunch when I couldn’t get out of bed before 10:30am. This also meant that we had to forgo the kaya toast in favour of something more substantial – roti chanai with curry sauce, Siamese Laksa and ban chang kueh. All great and we’re heading back really soon to try the rest of the menu.

yeah i went to this joint last week.
- It is from the same company as the Kopitiam in Chinatown (which went downhill after the first few months of opening)
- This place’s prices are pretty reasonable. The roti canai is not bad but the following have issues:
a) rojak – for $9 , you would expect more on the plate. It’s too little and the taste does lose out to New Straits Cafe
b) nasi kayu kandar – the spices in the lamb rendang, nasi briyani and curry chicken are too flat. I must say that no one has ever done better than “Nasi Kayu Kandar Penang” which opened up in Boxhill a few years ago. It was owned by a friend of mine. Sadly, it’s closed down now.
Overall, this old town kopitiam is rubbish. I rather Bismi in Sydney Rd. It’s the real thing
