Kong Thai Lai Coffee Shop - George Town

Coffee is good, toast and soft boil eggs are typical. Avoid venturing during peak hours, tourist spot. Parking can be challenging.

A very old school type of coffeeshop. According to the auntie they have moved here from another location for 6mths already. Ordered the toast with Butter and Kaya and toast with butter and half boil eggs on top. The toast are very well done, very crispy as though it's deep fried snack but it's not. Hainan coffee is a must to order, very fragrant. Service is 10/10, the auntie speaks very good english and their menu comes in english as well. There is option for CKT as well but didnt try hence can't comment on the taste. Come support these traditional coffesshops that's part of our culture.

Local hai nan coffee, taste not as good as others. Toast bread are crunchy outside but inside butter and kaya not surprise.

This kopitiam is on the recommended lists of several foodie socmed platforms. Hor ka sai was thick . However, the soft boiled eggs turned out to be hard boiled egg yolks. Kaya butter toast was ok, you can opt for steamed bread version also. Crew recommended char koay teow which was average, a little lacking on wok hei, though they scored brownie points for bigger than average prawns. Was told that the CKT here does not have chinese sausage. Another famous kopitiam, Bee Wah, is just a few doors away.

The butter taste flavourful. Toasted bread is a bit tough and dry. Overall….can visit if u plan this place along the way of your itinerary. I saw patrons started to order the CKT when the CKT aunty arrived at her stall. I did not order the CKT. I did not observe WOW expression when they eat the noodles. The food shop assistant is friendly and well spoken in English. But the temperature of the food shop is warm even the weather is cloudy.
