Coffee

Old Hen is more well known for its cold brews, but I liked this filter coffee too. I asked for something less acidic and they recommended this, which was smooth and pleasant.

My favourite cup of kopi/coffee is, strangely, Kopitiam’s kopi o kosong. It has this sweet and fragrant taste that you would never expect from kopi o kosong, that increases in intensity towards the bottom of the cup, and the last few dregs are the bottom are the tastiest. I’ve never tasted anything like it in other kopis.

They were featuring coffees from Myanmar, including this from Ga Naing Yar, a village in the mountains of Shan State where coffee is a source of income for the community to develop. I liked the presentation of the coffee, in a glass wrapped in a cloth, with a earthy stone cup to pour the coffee into. The coffee itself had fruity notes, and was comforting and smooth. This is a nice place to chill, and do work or read a book.

Not great. Rather bland, dilute and weak. I wouldn't come back again, especially not at this price.
