Staff and owner (Mr. Tan, Mr. Simon) make the experience personal; one reviewer spent three hours chatting with the owner. The cottage-style setting draws students and friends who stay for hours without pressure. Food runs from kopitiam staples (Pan Mee at RM9.90) to western fare (chicken roulade, French toast); chai tea at RM4 and the famous 3-layer tea are standouts. Portions are generous, prices stay reasonable, and parking is easy and free.
