Malaysia Food Blog, Malaysia Travel Blog


BM Kia says..
As I read through my blog posts for 2008, I found most of them are restaurant related reviews. I think this is deviating from my original purpose of food blogging, which is to discover and promote local foods, especially hawker fares. If not, it wouldn't be fit to be called "Malaysia Food Blog" So, my main aim of blogging for year 2009 would be to continue to do what I actually enjoyed the most - to travel, discover and promote cheap and tasty food.

Queensbay Old Town Kopitiam

Posted by: vkeong In: Food and Drink| Penang| Queensbay| White Coffee () (34 views)

old town queensbay

Old Town Kopitiam in Queensbay has more food and drinks available for order compared to the other branches.

old town queensbay

old town twin white coffee

One of them is Twin White Shake, a much thicker version of the usual iced white coffee. Priced at RM3.80, it is only available cold and its serving size is very small. It was a nice try, but next time I will stick to the usual iced white coffee lol.

nasi rendang chicken

Another item is Nasi Rendang Chicken (RM7.80) It sure looked yummy but does not taste as good as Nasi Lemak Special and Curry Chicken Rice. Just my opinion-lah.. the sambal was excellent though ;)

double butter toast

We had to try this, Double Butter Toast (RM2.00) It’s on the chef’s recommendation list and every table ordered one. So we figured that it should be good. It tasted good alright, the toast was really crunchy. But the butter wasn’t oozing out from the toast as depicted in the menu :P

old town curry mee

Curry Mee (RM5.80) was ok, the gravy was not thick enough. Penang hawkers’ curry mee is still the best.

old town white coffee

Lastly, Old Town White Coffee that I can never get enough of lol.

Wow! U r really good in taking food picture till u really up value the food ! A simple white coffee can b so tempting under yr skill. Old town kopitiam is so normal in KL and we can find it anywhere. Sometimes, a bit bored with toasted bread with kaya n butter. DUnno any creative person can create something like cranberry wt roasted chicken with toasted bread selling in kopitiam…haha

I regretted that when I went back to Penang in december I didn’t drop by Queensbay mall… the place sounds to be a really exciting place teeming with life (by reading your blog posts…), so I must really go there next time! ;)

Jackson - wow, cranberry with roasted chicken lol. If you encountered any that does this remember to let me know :P I sure would love to try.

ipohwav3 - Yeah me too. But Old Town Kopitiam’s coffee is the next best thing.. can’t go to Ipoh every weekend lol.

YenLi - Hmm, didn’t really notice that they have Kopi O on the menu. Will keep an eye open for that next time ;)
teddY - Well.. for Penangites it’s quite a place.. but still nothing compared to KL or Singapore’s shopping complexes. Recently I like to hang around in the Borders bookstore :)
drumsticks - Thanks!

Dear Danny, Queensbay currently does not have any Wi-Fi points. However, it will be available soon because we have agreed to designate OT Queensbay as a hotspot under Telekom Malaysia. Unfortunately, the installation date has not been set yet. I’m sure it will not be too long from now. E-gate will not have a wi-fi point due to the fact that that area already has a strong signal emanating from Starbuck’s.

I went to their new outlet in Ara Damansara NZX.
Tastefully done and I like their Asam Laksa a lot.
No need to go Penang to eat already.
Taste like Penang, looks like Penang but its in Foodtiam Coffee.

Brandon , your foodtiam concept can’t work.

If your busienss model not yet ready and keep looking Investor , it will not as stable as old town.

If Copy old town must have some thing change , can’t 100% copy even the food so expensive and the drink not tasty.

For those who wish invest in foodtiam must reconsider.

hey, I’ve not tried the food at foodtiam but I guess the guy who commented about the food “sucks” is too over. If the staff treated you badly, you should just talk abt the service. Your taste must have some problem bcoz I see lots of ppl at foodtiam at a shopping complex.

Love the food but Very bad service for Queensbay Old Town outlet.Went a few times with my friends. Yet everytime we waited very long for our food. There was a time i took my friends from kl for meal and he waited for 45 mins for his food. And when we tell the staff they just ignored. So how can u charge servise charge when the service is poor and staff is not polite at all to the customer. People won’t mind to pay for the service charge if the staff is polite n service is excellent. Hope will see improvement on my next visit.

anybody have any idea how long one would spent time hanging eating and drinking at a kopitiam and how much the spent??

other than good food, what the pulling factor for a customer to return back to the same kopitiam..

vk: I don’t think Old Town is serving good food anymore. They have increased the price too… If I have a choice, I’d never eat at Old Town anymore
