Kopitiam in California
@eatshitndie
it's finally open. this kopitiam is supposed to be opened last year but the city permit process got screwed up. they had to redo and then postpone the construction. and after 6.9 months into construction with opening date in april, pandamic struck. over 30 staff and service personnel were undergoing training when lockdown began. the owner continues to pay rent, utilities, staff and all personnel despite the shutdown for almost 6.9 months. good for her. she's a crazy rich asian sinkie in sg. 6.9 sexpensive sexotic cars. huge mansion. i was there on the 1st weekend. parked my porsche in front of it on waverley. and was 1st in line. when it opened, the line was already 69 people long. outdoor seating is available as the eatery next door (prolific oven) is closed permanently, thus there's sextra space on the walkway. next door taipan dim sum place is still constructing a deck on parking spaces for outdoor dining. i like the ambience inside but cannot dine indoors for now. marble top tables, stools, and very warm colors and feeling. the kitchen is good and fast, churning out makan quickly with great quality. the only problem i have is the kopi station. too slow and too confused. they have latino baristas who still gabra between kopi-c and kopi. i guess the c-suffix confuses them since in sg it stands for carnation but there's no "carnation" evaporated milk at the cafe. they have evaporated milk for kopi-c, but it's a different brand. they think it's "condensed" milk, so orders have to be redone. if it's kopi-e, they may get the orders right the first time. that kopi station should be helmed by a sexperienced sinkie swift hand - ah pek in singlet and shorts with towel over his shoulder and unlit ciggy dangling on his lips.
When you open a business, it does not mean all owners are considered substance material. The true test comes when crisis hit and that is the real test to see if they are made of real substance. Ya kun and Killiney are run by different owners of diff substances.Probably Killiney won't succeed.. All the Ya Kun outlets in HK closed down already. @its peak, they had more than 20 outlets..
No No ... pls dun protray sg with boomers look. That is a very boring and tiring look. A picture of that is nice for the cultural touch but not the staffs.that kopi station should be helmed by a sexperienced sinkie swift hand - ah pek in singlet and shorts with towel over his shoulder and unlit ciggy dangling on his lips.
The foreigners do not see it that way. There are YouTubers praising our local dishes.I don't see any market abroad that will develop a taste for this coolie class meal
no no not boomer. pioneer, and some say pre-war relic.No No ... pls dun protray sg with boomers look. That is a very boring and tiring look. A picture of that is nice for the cultural touch but not the staffs.
