真美珍, Chin Mee Chin Confectionery

Coffee with milk ($1.20), Coffee Black ($0.80), Kaya Bun with Butter ($1)

Chin Mee Chin, we know you through the media and that you live in the rich man's Katong estate but you really should not act like a spoilt brat for your fame.

It's not busy hours when i called out to you for an order yet i was treated with a glum silenced face; for billing, i was chided for not informing you the number of cakes you asked me to help myself from the glass cabinets...

Though i love your beautiful adornment of old ceiling fans, marble-top tables and age old mosaic tiles, your arrogance made me sweat as i drank up the diluted coffee fast to leave you alone. I shall not see you again, but will always remember our fond memories of your eggy Kaya spread and rich butter Cream Cones. And no, please don't remind me of that thick crusted egg tart which i reject after the first bite.

Goodbye is forever.
