As soon as you enter the door, you can feel the warm atmosphere of retro wood and open-air design, which is suitable for taking photos or relaxing. The must-order is of course the signature ChangJiang white coffee, which is fragrant and smooth, and can also be paired with butter kaya toast. The strong and light complement each other, it is simply a perfect match; it is also recommended to try the dry fried wonton noodles, the noodles are chewy and the dry sauce is full of aroma.
Kin Loong's business hours are roughly 08:00-18:00 every day, but it is recommended to check the social platform for updates before departure to avoid temporary breaks. As it is located in the suburbs, it is recommended to drive or take a taxi/Grab for more convenience.
