My visits to Sungai Ara Kopitiam
1 January 2021
For our very first lunch of the year, we had a hankering for the jawa mee sold by wife's cousin at Sungai Ara Kopitiam. So off we went there. When we arrived, we saw that the kopitiam was packed, so we bought home. The large at RM6 each. Still delicious!

My wife found out this morning that one of her cousins has opened a Jawa Mee stall at Sungai Ara Kopitiam. We decided to make a trip to give it a try. We arrived around 12:20pm, and were lucky to get one of the last bowls before the stall closed for the day. In fact, it was only the first day that they are selling at Sungai Ara Kopitiam. It is their second outlet after the first one at Eng Loh Coffee Shop on Lebuh Gereja.
I enjoyed the Jawa Mee very much. It is similar to the Jawa Mee that my wife makes, which is different from the tomato sauce based Jawa Mee. This one uses potato as the base. I ordered the big portion, which is RM6 (but was given a treat by my wife's cousin).

Enjoying the Sungai Ara Kopitiam Jawa Mee (25 December 2020)
When I removed my facemask to enjoy the jawa mee, the owner of the coffee shop immediately recognized me. He treated me to his nasi kunyit. I was too full to have it immediately, so I brought it home.

Not only that, he also treated me to the mochi. These are sold 4 to a tray for RM5.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
