Kopitiam Kemaman had been in Damansara Utama for quite some time already, since I was in my college’s previous campus. Locating this kopitiam shouldn’t be a problem; it is just along the police station’s row. The owner here talks to most of his customers so from this I could say that majority of the customers are regulars of this place. Kopitiam Kemaman serves quite a variety of food besides food from the eastern coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

You can have the breakfast set if you’re going in the morning. Perfect light meal to start off the day and it isn’t expensive too. The set comes with two slices of toasted bread and an egg. I would actually prefer them to apply more butter and kaya to the toast though so the taste wouldn’t just be more to a plain slice of bread taste.

Eggs are a good source of many vitamins, calcium, protein and many more. So as long you don’t overdo it, it is a great addition to your diet. Don’t leave out eggs on your next diet!

There’s also a choice of either a cup of tea or coffee and I went with the tea. The cup gives a kopitiam feel but the tea though isn’t strong enough and I think that drinks is one of the most important factor in getting a returning customer. Some people might just visit a kopitiam just for a drink so the drink here has to improve.

Then there’s the nasi dagang which is a favourite in Terengganu. Yes it is a small portion but they are not charging a high price for it so I would consider it justifiable. Taste wise is good but to be honest, it doesn’t match an original nasi dagang.

Honestly, I can’t really recall back the exact price for these but rest assure that with RM5-RM10, you will be able to get a meal here which I would say is affordable. The pricing here does not differ much from those economical Chinese coffee shops and the food here to me is still considered decent but surely there’s more room for improvement.
