Not many places in Singapore sell Kopi Gu You nowadays, and Heap Seng Leong is one eatery that still carries on this tradition. If you’re unsure of what Kopi Gu You is, it is coffee with condensed milk and sugar, with a slice of butter on top. The butter taste is quite mild, but adds a caramelised taste to the coffee! Order some fluffy kaya toast and half-cooked eggs to go along with your Kopi Gu You!
