Old Chinatown Kopitiam

I went with Jerwin, my brother, to Banawe today to install my gift and also Chin's gift on his Strada. We realized that it will actually take longer that we expect to install the said head unit and speakers so we decided to have lunch first. We just walked a few blocks along Banawe St. and on its side streets as well until Jerwin spotted a small but nice restaurant. It is Old Chinatown Kopitiam. As we enter the restaurant, we noticed that this place is actually very conceptualized. Its interior is carefully decorated with Chinese latterns, china procelain, and like what the old chinatown uses, simple table and chairs that is made from wood. That alone impresses us already. As we signal for the menu, I noticed that the price of their food is not cheap. The price ranges from 280 to 320 per dish.

We ordered the Pork Satay with Peanut Sauce, Garlic Cuttlefish and the Drunken Chicken. Upon serving the food, I must say it is yet the most delicious kopitiam that I have tasted here in the Philippines. It is soooooooooooooooooo delicious. Their speciality is the Bah Kut Teh, the famous pork rib soup in Singapore. We are sure gonna go back to this small, humble and very delicious restaurant.

Before I end this entry, I remind everyone when they visit this place, to order their famous coffee selection. It is very fragrant, full of flavour and delicious to the taste. No other commercialized cafe and coffee places can ever beat Old Chinatown Kopitiam's coffee.
