Hua Mui - The Traditional Kopitiam with Colonial Touch, Johor Bahru

Hua Mui Kopitiam (N1°27.438' E103°45.857') is located between the junction of Jalan Trus and Jalan Dhoby of Johor Bahru town.

This Kopitiam existed since 1948, it's 61 years ago...and I believe the boss today might be the second generation of the family.

I Love it because I called the Kopitiam of Malaysia. You will see all the Malaysian customers in the Kopitiam at anytime, no matter what races or religions you are from...all of them just like to have cup of coffee over here. The area will be crowded at most of the time.

Beside the coffee and tea, they are famous with the toasted bread. Till today they still using the charcoal oven! And I ordered their Signature dish - Hainanese Chicken Chop. Overall it was Delicious! It's crispy and tasty!
The cost of the foods & drinks here are reasonable price.

Honestly, I still haven't come across the second kopitiam like this in other corner of Malaysia. It's really show the True of Malaysia. That's mean the Kopitiam for Everyone!!

* Kopitiam - it's direct translate from Hokkien Dialect, meaning simple or traditional coffee shop.

  3. I would agree with you because of the pictures you posted speak for themselves, Hainanese Chicken Chop in particular looks delicious. Coal ovens have their own unique taste and probably that's why this place stands out form the rest.
