Upon reaching Kuala Lumpur we headed straight
to Old Klang Road looking to replace my android phone’s screen protector (we
guess the breakfast we had at Restoran Double AA earlier in the morning really
did energize us!).
We were torn between having lunch at either
PappaRich or Oldtown White Coffee which was located side by side here at 3rd
Mile Square, and decided on Oldtown. Why? We have a personal preference for
bright and cheerful establishments, and PappaRich was a little ‘gloomy’ (read:
dark and inadequate lighting) for our taste.

| bright and cheerful always wins the day |
 |
| nothing gloomy about Oldtown |
After the delectable food frenzy Kuala
Terengganu served us over the past few days, Oldtown in contrast provided
us with jarring reminder that we were back to the drudgery of Kuala Lumpur life,
and was an apt antithesis to our recent daily diet.
 |
| no keropok lekor? |
I ordered (what turned out to be a
veritable mess of a dish called) Javanese Mee; Cat tried the Minced Chicken Egg
Noodle while Brendan had the Chicken Chop Crunchy Bun.
 |
| what the menu said |
 |
| Cat said it was ma-ma (so-so) |
 |
| travel advisory: stay clear of this dish! |
 |
| !@#$ beyond words (or description) |

 |
| a sad substitute for keropok lekor, Brendan said |
 |
| gave us some cheer at least |
The verdict? I think it isn’t fair to form
a critical opinion of these dishes so soon after coming back from Kuala
Terengganu, so we’ll suspend judgement for now. I however need to serve fair
warning to stay clear of the Javanese Mee, a dish so deplorable that for
purposes of self-censorship I will refrain from commenting further.
The damage? As is to be expected of most upscale Kopitiams it cost us RM44.10, staying barely within range of the everyday food for the everyday person. Would we come back? Yes, so long as we avoid the Javanese Mee!
