This corner restaurant has great neighborhood ambiance. People are relaxing and enjoying their slow morning. The drinks are good. Most importantly, there's a stall called Xen Gold Fields with the best roasted pork I've had in a long time. It's really spectacular!

I've been coming back a lot recently. Mom used to like it here. The food is great and the drinks are good too. It is not overpriced like most kopitiam, which has sprung up in my neighbourhood. I don't have to drive too far though but parking is a challenge especially in the morning if we want to come for breakfast. I used to drop mom off whilst I hunt for a parking space and the staff here is super nice. They always pull out a chair for her if there are no available tables and insist she sits while they get a table or whilst waiting for me. Once they misunderstood her and thought I was on my way so they made her coffee. There are a lot of elderly patrons here, no doubt from the nearby condo. There are numerous food stalls here so we have quite a lot of options. My favourite wad their curry noodles because the broth is so good. The drinks especially the cham ice is really well made, with just the right ratio which I love. I really wanted to try all the food here but some of the stalls like the chicken rice only start serving at a later time. Still, I will just aim to try out all their breakfast dishes first.
