About Ah Seng (Hai Nam) Coffee
My father took over "Ah Seng (Hai Nam) Coffee" from my grandfather when he was 17 years old. At that time, the coffee stall was located in Lau Pa Sat Festival Market. In 1997, "Ah Seng (Hai Nam) Coffee" moved to the current Amoy Street Food Centre. Since young, he was helping my grandfather to run the coffee stall business, he has learnt the skills and techniques in brewing traditional Hainanese coffee and toasting bread with charcoal. These laid a strong and solid foundation for his future development.
Today, "Ah Seng (Hai Nam) Coffee" is very well-known in Amoy Street. The Japanese magazine, Mangosteen Club has recommended our stall for a few times and tourists from Japan, Europe and America like to patronize our stall as well as our local dignitaries.
We selected the finest coffee beans, grounded into powder and then fried it over. In this way, the fragrant smell of the coffee will release into the atmosphere when brewed. French toast is one of the signature dish. The bread is coated entirely by eggs and toasted with charcoal. It was then served with homemade kaya. The French toast taste yummy and it goes well with the sweet but not greasy kaya. The kaya toast bread is another signature dish that cannot be missed and Singaporeans love it so much. Crispy bread with tasty butter and kaya plus two half-boiled eggs is the best choice for a good starting day.

| 22 Dec 2004 | Mr Wong / Editor | An Authentic Hainanese coffee stall. When you come in the weekends, you might be able to see Japan tourists ordering their foods as they are well-known there. The coffee and tea are traditional type, thick and tasty. French toast bread taste fantastic with the home-made kaya… kaya toast bread is crispy, using charcoal… and the half boiled eggs definitely make you drooling. This is indeed a wonderful place for your breakfast and tea break. Die die must try!!! |
