When we set off on a trek towards Kopitiam Bagus.Bagus (捌哥.捌哥特色馬拉茶啡廳) in Sham Shui Po, we had no idea if we were just having tea or early dinner. It was 5pm in the afternoon so it's in a bit of a tough territory.
Regardless of tea or dinner, this would be part of the agenda. I quickly got it out of the way, my favorite kaya toast (咖吔牛油多) in the city. The fragrant pandan-infused kaya jam and thick slab of frozen butter, I don't call this the best kaya toast in town for nothing.
And I got myself some iced pulled tea to wash it down.
Nasi Lemak Ayam Berempah (馬拉炸雞脾椰醬飯) – Deep-fried chicken leg with coconut milk rice and a bunch of goodies including curried potatoes, cucumber, hard-boiled egg, peanuts and anchovies.
Look at the size of that chicken leg!!! 😮 (the batter was a little on the hard side)...
Ipoh Chicken with bean sprouts and fresh chives (怡保芽菜雞)– Something for little nugget. He always loves his chicken although we had to make sure that he didn't get any bean sprouts or chives to go with it.
This guy obviously enjoyed the meal. In fact, he had two glasses of the iced winter melon tea all by himself!
And he tried to hide behind the tiny little piece of tissue paper without success.
Frankly, the chicken and coconut milk rice were both average at best but the kaya toast (one with butter) and pulled tea always had enough to lure me back.
