Kaw Kaw Pakkopi Taman Tan Yew Lai Curry Mee

The Food

I was there for their curry mee. The curry is flavourful and was of the slightly coarser variety. If you like it with lots of santan, this will not be for you. It will feel even a bit powdery but I liked how the curry seeped even into the noodles. I would prefer my curry mee to be with wantan mee. I had forgotten to request for that so I had it with yellow noodles instead. Nevertheless, it was still a good experience. The noodles were not overcooked and retained a firmness to the bite.

The fried wantan that I ordered was a bit cold though it was still crunchy. The wantan is well seasoned and I find the bite and the taste appealing. I remedied it being cold by dunking it into the curry broth. That warmed it up and soaking in the curry flavour.

Kopi

While some people swear by their coffee, I find it too much on the strong side. Well, their name says Kaw Kaw anyway. “Kaw Kaw” is Cantonese slang for powerful taste when it refers to food. It’s a versatile word and could be used in other situations to denote different meanings.

There are some complaints on Google reviews that say this place is not comfortable and does not have wifi. It is a place to for you to eat your food and scoot off and make way for the next customer. It is not a place for you to tarry.

Kaw Kaw Pakkopi has a branch in SS2. And they are not be confused with Pakkopi Kaw which originates from Sri Petaling. I don’t know if there is a history between the two of them but I do know I enjoyed the curry mee here.
