Coffee shop that makes its own bread
Ever come across any coffee shop that makes it own bread? Well, there is one in the heart of town. Next to Raffles Hotel at the junction of Beach Road and Purvis Street. This is a Hainanese coffeeshop called YY KAFEI DIAN. The shop sells chicken rice, which is quite good. But what is unique about this shop is the bread. They have an oven inside the shop for baking bread, in the form of a bun. The freshly baked bread is then lightly toasted, cut in half and spread with their own kaya and butter. Eaten warm, it taste wonderful. The bread is served throughout the day until 10pm. The owner's wife also makes a special Hainanese dessert which is available only whenever she feels like making it. It is made from flour, similar to maur chee, and then coated with brown sugar shredded coconut.
