Kopitiam

Curry Laksa

Rich, coconut-forward curry broth loaded with noodles, tofu puffs, and your choice of protein — one of the most authentic versions of this dish in New York City

Kaya Toast

Thick-cut toast spread with house-made pandan coconut jam and a slab of cold butter — the definitive Malaysian breakfast item, done right

Soft-Boiled Eggs

Served runny and silky in a bowl, traditionally seasoned with dark soy sauce and white pepper — the classic kopitiam pairing with kaya toast

Nasi Lemak

Fragrant coconut rice served with sambal, fried anchovies, peanuts, cucumber, and a choice of protein — a complete, deeply satisfying Malaysian national dish

Kopi

Traditional Malaysian pulled coffee brewed with robusta beans and sweetened condensed milk — bold, slightly bitter, and far more interesting than anything from a chain

Teh Tarik

Frothy pulled milk tea with a caramel sweetness and strong black tea backbone — the quintessential Malaysian drink, served hot

Char Kway Teow

Wok-fried flat rice noodles with egg, bean sprouts, and savory dark soy — smoky when the wok is hot, though consistency can vary

Roti Canai

Flaky, layered flatbread served with a side of curry dipping sauce — best ordered fresh off the griddle when it's still crispy at the edges
