When you wake up looking for a hearty Hainanese breakfast, which place comes to mind? For foodies, we will immediately think of Ho Kow Kopitiam. Of course, who can even resist the aroma of freshly brewed Hainanese coffee and the crispy kaya butter toast? Yes, Ho Kow Kopitiam is a household name when it comes to classic Hainanese breakfast. If you’re a regular patron at Ho Kow Kopitiam, then you need to check out these photos of Uncle Ho Kow all dressed up in modern streetwear. One word: Chio.
Wah Uncle Ho Kow, You Look So Cool!
Ho Kow Kopitiam has been around since 1956 established by Uncle Ho Kow’s father, Ho Kee Soon. It used to be situated on Lorong Panggung in Chinatown but has relocated to Jalan Balai Polis. Even from afar, you can spot the snaking queue during pre-MCO days. That’s a true testament to their food right?
