§04 · Who makes it
Three people.
Same open-at-five. Same roast. The only thing that's changed is he's stricter.
№. 01
Benson Tan
Owner. Roasts Saturdays.
Ten years in IT procurement before his father's knee gave out. Took over. Kept the name, kept the staff, fired the supplier cutting the beans with soya.
"If the egg is wrong, tell me. I'll redo. Don't pretend."
№. 02
Auntie Rose
Eggs & toast. Since 1998.
Outlasted two owners. The charcoal toast is hers. Her mother makes Friday's curry puff at home, delivered at 6:40am.
"The kaya is not a recipe. It's my mother's hands."
№. 03
Uncle Lim
Morning kopi · 5am–9am
Works the kopi sock from opening. Says four words a morning on average. Knows everyone's order by the second visit.
"Kopi gao, siew dai."
