Atok Kopitiam

There is this kopitiam in same block as where we normally work out at Level Up Fitness (LUF), namely, Atok Kopitiam. It is located in the Dub Commercial Centre, below Absolutely Dress Gallery. To put in a more familiar context to all Kuchingkia, it is located behind HSBC Bank.

Atok Kopitiam

Every time I drive pass the kopitiam , I always put a thought to visit the place someday. And finally, that someday was on the Boxing Saturday. Went there with mammee monsta after our workout at LUF. Yea, I know. Super ironic kan? Go level up like gila and end up putting more calories into the system.

Camwhoring is a must, especially when out with another camwhorer. XDDDDD

Anyway, the Atok Kopitiam is just like any other kopitiam we have in Kuching, be it Kaya & Toast, IpohTown, OldTown, you name it. Even the settings and furniture are quite similar.

Similar styles, similar ambiance, similar etc..

Atok's Free WIFI

Even have free WIFI like the rest. Don’t play play. Atok also got WIFI one okeh..

Atok's Teh O @ RM1.50 & Teh C Special @ RM2.50

When I asked the waiter for their most special drinks, he recommended their Teh (tea) selection of drinks. As recommended, we ordered Teh O Ice and  Teh C Special (better known to all as the Three Layers Teh C Peng) .

The Teh C Special is truly special and authentic. Authentic in the sense of the taste of the sugar (the bottom black layer seen in the picha above). Unlike other coffeeshops, they like to use the special Teh C Peng sugar syrup, here, Atok uses the Brown sugar, better known as Gula Melaka or Atap T’ng in Hokkien.

Atok's Menu

There is one thing I can proudly stand on the chair/table and say that Atok Kopitiam is different from other kopitiams based on their menu. Yes, they have those typical apek kaya and toast with soft boiled egg and what not. However, their specialties here are more on their rice and noodles selection.

Atok's Ayam Percik @ RM7.00

Oh My Goodness! The Ayam Percik is not only fattening but also very Sedaps!!!! Boy, do I love their sambal or what?

The special sauce poured over deep fried chicken is superb and taste even better with the sambal. The sambal is spicy and hot hot hot. The veggie they served us was raw cabbage to go with the sambal as ulam. The sweet cabbage and hot sambal are irresistable. We ordered for extra sambal and veggies to satisfy the ulamness in us. LOL

Atok's Rice Crackers <-- LOL

The Ayam Percik is served with a plate of Santan (coconut milk) rice with crispy crackers and a bowl of soup.

Atok's Bubur Ayam @ RM4.50

The Bubur Ayam (Chicken Porridge) is very special. It is served with crackers on it, along with peanuts and ikan bilis and grinded chilli sauce. To us, we find the bubur pretty plain and added loads of pepper and soya sauce and *thumbs up*.

ahyienyien & Bubur Ayam

My comel Mammee Monsta camwhoring with our Bubur Ayam. See those crackers? Once you mix the crackers into the porridge, when they get soft and mushy, they actually tasted better than eating crispy crackers with a spoonful of porridge in your mouth.

I bet that Atok Kopitiam originates from Indonesia, if not, inspired with Indonesian cuisine. Why do I say so? Well, the rice and porridge are served with crackers! The first time I had crackers with my porridge was during my holiday trip in Jakarta. Hence, I believe Atok Kopitiam is Indon.

Opening Hours:
Monday – Saturday | 7.30am – 6.30am
Sunday & Public Holidays | CLOSED

Piff.. why their opening hours is similar with “office hours”?
