Inside of the shop

Part of the menu  (Tai Hong Kopitiam)

Lei cha (meaning milled tea in Hakka dialect) is made by grinding a blend of green tea, herbs, seeds and vegetables to create a greenish, grainy, minty gruel or tea.

This thick greenish tea is poured over a bowl of steamed white or brown rice garnished with fried ground nuts, chopped long beans, vegetables, fried shallots and fried tofu.

All the ingredients used in the tea and the rice were fresh and cooked just right to retain their freshness and nutritional goodness. Lei cha may not look very photogenic but it is loaded with vitamins and fibre.
