"It’s like time has stood still at this traditional kopitiam (coffee shop), which hasn’t changed a stitch since the 1950s. The wizened staff still make thick black coffee the old way, with a sock, and throw in a knob of butter when you order a kopi gu you (literally coffee with butter). Like any neighborhood kopitiam, it is patronized by residents from around the area, many of who have been coming here for decades." - Annette Tan
