Kopitiam (NYC)

Needed to bring some sustenance for the flight home, and stopped at Kopitiam
You have to keep your eyes peel, otherwise, you'd walk past it.  
I really miss these Thousand Layer Cake, they do make them layer by layer, which is why it's so precious.  It tasted really close to how I remember them too.
I got these Kaya Toast.  The Kaya Butter is really pandan mix with coconut milk.  It is very tasty.  The Brits eat toasts with butter and jam, this Malaysian way is pretty much just combine the 2 into one spread and you just use that.  Taste great on toasted bread.  Nice little sandwich.

The place is tiny, have 2 seating at the window, but everything they made is pretty authentic.  From some interview I saw, her father was a chef and her mother provide the ingredients from back home.  No wonder I can taste so much heart.
