Coffee Powder @ Pasar besar
It’s been a while since I posted anything here. I have been so busy! Also I can’t seem to find where I stored my photos. I just found them and here’s a post about Coffee Powder.
Too lazy to go out to have coffee at Ipoh Old Town or Rengit Coffee. Or you think they are becoming too expensive, why not brew some coffee at home? You might ask, where can you get coffee powder that you know is freshly grounded and mix? There are a few places in BP that sells them. But I am introducing this little stall holder who peddles his coffee from a cart at the Pasar Besar.
This stall owner (who do not really want to show his face) grew up in the same kampung as my mum. Mum occasionally buys coffee powder from him and will make coffee ‘Vietnam style’, using a cute little coffee plunger/maker she bought from Vietnam. (this website has a photo of how the plunger looks)
I am not a coffee expert, but the man will show you the unprocessed coffee seeds.
Haha… no point showing it to me, because I don’t understand. For those who can tell, this is for you.
He grinds the coffee with this machine. It roars loudly and out comes fragrant coffee powder.
Ask him how you like your coffee and he can mix it for you!
The tins where all the coffee beans and powder are stored.
The price is reasonable too, 100gm of white coffee is RM2.10
Black coffee is Rm1.60
(These photos were taken during CNY, so I think the prices remains the same).
Now, go take a break and have some coffee!

Wow! Kopi chap udang terbang still around after all these years?
Can’t see the towkay’s face but I don’t think it’s the same one who years ago, peddled his coffee around BeePee. To create loyalty, he would add a small brown paper token in the grounded bag of coffee powder which we would accumulate and exchange for more coffee powder or prizes!
Nice Aroma – Nice Coffee. Worth buying.
pls let me have the full address which i can use my gps to direct me. besides this is there any other famous coffee powder shops which i can buy other than this market place.
pls let me know what kind of BP specialities in food and pls provide full address.
tks
