Also amazing is the price. Everything this guy ate came up to only £23 (about S$41), which is very cheap considering it's in England and also how much he ordered. Ordering this much in a Singaporean cafe would probably cost at least S$60.

The food looks pretty good. Probably better than most other British food.

Omg I had to check if faggots is the name of a real dish or just some joke.

Haha I had to do a search too. Apparently it's just some kind of sausage...which is oddly appropriate I guess.

British food has a bad reputation sometimes but honestly almost everything here looks pretty good.

Most importantly, the food looks awesome, especially the fried bee hoon.

Non-Chinese speakers can post here if you need any translations and I'll be happy to help.

Every single dish they ordered looks good. Love these old-school restaurants!

Yup agreed. Hope Malaccans and tourists will continue to support the restaurant.

Another interesting spot in Malacca. Everything is RM 1 each, even the nasi lemak or fried noodles. Each item looks good too, amazing value for money.

One ringgit for nasi lemak is such a good deal. I wonder how the hawkers survive because the cost of ingredients alone in Malaysia is no joke.

By the way, for those who don't know, the Kopitiam food court at our dear Jurong Point has renovated and is now branded as a "food hall". I just hope the Indonesian grilled chicken/fish + rice stall is still there...

I'm wondering about this too. Maybe the coffee shop owner is generous enough to lower the rent but even then, the ingredients and manpower required for each item must cost more than RM1.
