Old Chinatown Kopitiam (Part II)
Me, together with Derick and King, went to Old Chinatown Kopitiam for dinner. I was the one who recommended this place to them because I really enjoyed their food. Delicious doesn't even begin to describe the taste of this Malaysian restaurant located in Maria Clara St. (near Banawe and Orthopedic Hospital) in Quezon City. It is King's "despedida" (farewell) treat to me and Derick since he already resigned from MSI-ECS. He seemed happier now after resigning. Why? (CLUE: People from MSI-ECS knows the reason why.... but for the sake of the other readers here it is: sometimes no matter how great the company is, the boss plays an important role in your development and maturity, King never got this from his boss and I guess no one will) Thank God King's boss isn't mine, whew!!
We ordered Bah Kut Teh, Sesame Spareribs and I let them tried the delicious Drunken Chicken. The Bah Kut Teh is the highlight of the dinner, the soup is really fabulous. It is served simering on a small stand with an alcohol lamp. This way, the soup remains hot. The taste is authentic. The soup serves 5 to 6 according to the menu but base on my own opinion, 3 is enough to share. If more than 3 people, you will fight over who gets the last slurp. That is a good explanation of how delicious is delicious this soup is. Another highlight is the dessert named "Chendol" that we ordered, it has red bean paste, coconut milk and pandan jelly served on crushed ice. It is Malaysia's local version of our Halo-Halo. All I can say is this dessert is mouth-watering! So I tell this again, delicious doesn't give justice to the food being served here in Old Chinatown Kopitiam.
