First heard about it when the KK Trip gang gathered there few months back for a short get-together cum briefing. It was the Taman Connaught branch, at the shoplots below UCSI.
Interior of Old Town Kopitiam, same old design, everywhere.
We bumped into the outlet in Pandan Indah by accident on the second day of Raya, looking for a place to have brunch. Initially, the plan was to have yummy Bak Kut Teh but unfortunately, we were a tad bit too early and I was lazy to head elsewhere. Sigh.
This is me sporting a muka sien (bored look) because had to settle for a meal here instead of Bak Kut Teh. How can!
The pencil. Used to place a tick on the menu sheet, seen on foreground.
I notice that the latest trend in the food business/industry would be Kopitiam outlets. If you still remember (not taking into account mamaks, which has been around for some time), initially it was Cafe(s), sprouting like mushrooms after the rain.
Then came the HK themed Char Chan Teng (restaurants/eateries), pioneered by Kim Gary and birth of the Cheese Baked Rice, yummy! Finally, at current time, Kopitiam(s) which sometimes bearing the most Uncle-ish/Aunty-ish names around, normally famous for toasts and local dishes.
Si Mat Lai Char (Stockings Tea with Milk?), cold.
Normal Lai Char (Tea with Milk), hot. Old School tea cup.
One thing I do have to point out is the limited choice of food item here, which is a turn off, at least for me. It's like being in a hypermart with the variety of a minimart. Nothing really special about the food either, and the price not being relatively cheap. A place suitable only for a hearty breakfast. Period.
Fire & Ice Something Bun. Intriguing name, very normal, bland and plain taste.
The girlfriend's half-boiled Omega eggs, very healthy.
Her Roti Bakar (Toasts) as well. Bread and butter with hal-boiled Omega eggs, very healthy indeed.
Excuse me while I indulge in my Dry Curry Chicken Mee. Slurppsss...
Given a choice, I would prefer the Kopitiam located in Leisure Mall's Food Junction anytime.
p/s: Prior to this post, all of a sudden, my album in photobucket went bonkers, disabling me from accessing my account. Had quite a shocking then.

Ya now everywhere also open Kopitiam. I think one of the best is Kluang Station.
You should try their White Coffee. Is nice. Foods is not many varieties therefore also seldom go.
wooo the eggs look good
I don't like Old Town Kopitiam because their milk tea does not have condensed milk (and their toast tastes funny). Healthy, yes, but hardly traditional.
[adrian] you meant the best Old Town Kopitiam branch? Dunno, but all the coffee tasted the same to me, hahaha!
[ky] Omega 3, the best! haha.
[albert] I normally have coffee, never try the tea before. hahaha! And the toast looks funny too, :P, dark brown chocolatish. I prefer the charcoal roti bakar, yums...
I don't really fancy Oldtown esp. the food!
I suppose their breads are the best.
Drink wise, it's a turn-off!
