This is a coffee shop located in the Malim area of Melaka. The kopitiam is operating in a corner lot with an extension on one side. The capacity is fairly large. The kopitiam has number of food stalls operating. The food served here is average standard. The Nasi Lemak and Curry Laksa are reasonable. The usual coffee shop selections of drinks are available. Prices are reasonable. Cleanliness is acceptable. Service is fast. Public washroom is available within the kopitiam. With some assistance, handicapped patrons on wheelchairs can patronize this kopitiam. 24-09-2024 : One of the stall selling Curry Noodles has moved. A Dim Sum stall will replace the Curry Noodles stall. The Nasi Lemak is still good and recommended . 06-05-2025 ' There is a new stall serving Japanese meals. Enjoyed the Japanese Curry Pork Chop Rice. Recommend.

Love the mee siam and pai tee here. Be prepared to wait because the staff is operated by husband and wife. Peak hours can be very busy for them. So just be patient. It is very reasonably priced too.

Didn’t realise I’d been here before—until I read my own review. Still feel the same. Still cheap. Still large in portion. Not really impressive but the coffee’s decent, so I’d come back for breakfast. The black coffee here is decent. . . Follow for more no-filter food takes. JSE@20250811 It's not my first time dining there, but I can't remember when or what I ate. The food is decent, but nothing memorable that sticks with me over time. It's just as ordinary as the rest, so maybe adding a signature dish could make it stand out and draw more customers. . Would I go back for a second visit? . Maybe if I'm bored next time. . Noodles RM6.5 Coffee and toast RM4 . . JSE@20240414
