"Southeast Asia is littered with hundreds of tiny shops serving delicious local brews of coffee. The old aunties and uncles that run these stands, called kopitiams or hawker centers, would be more than happen to serve your morning cup, and the cost is usually under a dollar and always under $1.50. It’s a far cry from the $4, $5, and $7 coffee served by Starbucks and McDonald’s." - Edmund Tay
