Once a hotel and bar near the train station, Chong Kok today is a kopitiam that still manages to bring in curious diners from all over town. The old-world furnishings have remained, alongside longtime regulars from all walks. Come for an excellent Malaysian breakfast with a side of camaraderie. Second to none in Klang, the coffeeshop's Kaya Butter Bread (RM1.80) is easily our top order here. Have it lightly toasted over charcoal fire or steamed to soft, pillowy perfection. The Nasi Lemak Bungkus (RM2) from the Malay stall out front also fares well for a mini morning version of the rice dish. For larger portions, order one by the plate from RM3.50. Both breakfast dishes warrant a hallmark order of Half-Boiled Kampung Eggs (RM2) and Kopi-O (from RM1.40), extra kao (strong).
Avg price per person: RM10
