Yet another kaya roti place. Ah Mei - Rail Mall - Upper Bukit Timah Road
A pleasant little airconditioned coffee shop along the row of shophouses (near Cold Storage) at Rail Mall - ala Killeney or Yakun - for your daily snort of kaya roti, eggs and coffee. But with some important differences.
First: the coffee. These guys have done it differently by roasting the coffee with chocolate. The coffee tastes nicely nutty, with a well-rounded fragrance that retains the original strong character of local coffee.
Next: the toast. These guys actually mix kaya with peanut butter together - don't quite know whether it was by design or accident, but the mixture was surprisingly tasty. I think I'm in love.
Furthermore: other food stuff. Ah Mei, in her infinite wisdom, decided to incorporate a roti prata counter (with a selection of other junky, popular indian-muslim food like Roti John), so you are guaranteed of getting something that will suit your kids.
Just right for the family.
