Coffee or Tea. A mix of local and western

I never stopped my caffeine in-take, but I got busy and lazy...

Some shots I took before my overseas holiday.

Let's sweet weekday promo, coffee and desserts are average only...

cup looks nicer than the coffee, at a local eatery

My friend was late and I decided to have a cup of tea and read the papers while waiting.

At Obolo cafe, the cake is good but coffee very average.

a new drink that was too sweet for me.

one of my favourites for teh c & kopi c

late lunch of hot lemon tea with prata

Seriously, I think it is hard to find good western coffee. Most often, when I just order from some place out of convenience, they usually turn out average or even below average. I guess its the same for local drinks too, but usually I stick to kopitiams I'm familiar with.

Coffee or Tea. 11 Feb 11

Hans tea used to be my favourite, but over the years, it seemed to taste more diluted. Today, I requested for it to be "thick" (meaning stronger) and it really taste more like the teh c I'm used to.

Coffee or Tea. 8 Feb 2011

teh c siu dai

Teh c, local tea with evaporated milk is my favourite after lunch beverage on a hot day, cheap and good.

Today, the price of local coffee/ tea at the coffee shop down my block of flat increased by 10cents. It typically cost around $0.90 to $1.60, depending on which coffee shop one goes. I recall the days when a cup cost only $0.50. But every one or two years, the price will creep up by $0.10. Whenever price goes up, I grumble and attempt to fix a cup of teh c myself. However, my cup of tea just does not taste right, so after a few days, I'm back in the coffee shop.
