    Kopitiam is a coffee shop, kopi is Melayu for coffee, tiam is Hokkien pronounciation of 店, a shop, in Chinese. They can range from a food stall to a small restaurant, often with quite a unique mix of Chinese cuisine in local flavour with a hint of Euroupean influent. You can say that it quite a common phenomenom around South East Asian wherever you got a sizeable urban Chinese community, where they will use Chinese culinery technique to suite local pallete and add in a bit of Western colonial flavour for luxury appealling. In Vietnam back in the day we use to have tiệm nước, tiệm is Vietnamese spelling of tiam, usually run by a Hakka or Teochew uncle. They sell a lot of the same fusion food and well known in the city for their iconic take on how to brew a prefect slow brew coffee. Most of them is gonne by the early 2000s. I hope some fellow countrymen can prove I am wrong and give me the address of a good old tiệm nước of Sài Gòn.

      Traditional Kopitiam/coffeeshop are run by a Towkay who runs a venue selling coffee (and sometimes selling desserts and toasts). They would make available tenants to open stalls around them. You can order food from the stalls or sometimes from other stalls from other adjacent coffeeshops, but if you sit down in the cafe, you have to order and buy a drink even if you want or not. It might have changed, and some restaurants claim to be kopitiam-s but kopitiam food is run by people who specialises in various dishes. This love, passion and dedication in specialised food is what many Straits Chinese restaurants are missing in Western countries. In singapore, Hawker centres replace Kopitiam, where many restaurants try to invoke/simulate nostalgia of ‘kopitiam themepark’, but quite different from the local spirit of a kopitiam. For those who belong to the old Chinatown community, Kopitiam is where the communities congregate, newspaper are read, gossips spread and culture passed down. You’ll learn who’s who from growing up having breakfast or dinner there. It’s an important part of our lives and culture and I often feel sad and lament the demise of specialist stall-owners due to low prestige, long hours, low income and lack of support for their craftsmanship.

      Also, since she mentioned Singaporean kopitiam/coffeeshop, not to be confused, there is actually a brand of food-courts in shopping centers in Singapore called Kopitiam also. She is referring to the traditional kopitiam but might be a bit confusing since she isn't actually setting up a mini-food court style shop; which is more of the traditional kopitiam. Her restaurant is selling food found commonly (as individual stalls) in a traditional kopitiam e.g. chicken rice, toasts (with options such as kaya, butter etc) eggs and coffee/tea sets, nasi lemak etc.

    Your comment regarding spreading more education with Asian cooking is spot on.
    Turns out I've based everything on so-called asian recipes that are basically Mr Chilli Jam esk based adaptations for western palettes. I think on some level they just want to turn out books without giving one iota of respect to the traditional method; they wouldn't do it with French cusine so why do it with others. Just do it properly and then make suggestions as to alternate ingredients while bringing attention to the fact it won't be the same.
    Simple things make a huge difference, like I've only last week started cooking out the coconut milk in my thai curries... what a difference splitting the milk makes. It changes the whole flavour profile of the dish.

    So "Kopitiam" to us is just a type of shop that congregates tons of tiny hawker stall into one massive shop. It's much like a hawker center but not a building itself. It's like a shop-within-a-shop. You can find tons of different food sold by different stalls, all in one shop.
    "Kopitiam" essentially just meant "Coffee shop" as in the past, such shops do only sell Kopi (Coffee) and Roti (Bread) with butter and kaya (Coconut and egg jam). As times change, taste does too and soon these Kopitiam bosses had to add more food items into their business and by the time the 80s and 90s rolled in, the "shop-within-a-shop" system was the mainstay and now if you ask locals what "Kopitiam" is, that's what it is, "shop-within-a-shop".

    Re: gas cookers: We are about to rebuild our kitchen and we have gas mains on site. We ended up going with induction hob on the inside and then a covered outdoor kitchen with the BBQ and a wok burner. Best of both worlds. I agree that appliances need to head to greener but if you're minimizing footprint in other ways (and not using gas to boil potatoes) then I think there's a balance. Also those (good) high KW induction hobs are super expennies at the moment.

    Oh kopi tiam is everywhere in Malaysia but take note that Malaysia and Singapore has different meanings of Kopi tiam.
    -The term kopitiam in Malaysia is usually referred specifically to Malaysian Chinese coffee shops.
    -Food in a kopitiam is usually exclusively Malaysian Chinese cuisine.
    -Food courts and hawker centres are usually not referred to as kopitiams.
    Popularity of the old-fashioned outlets along with society's obsession with nostalgia and increasing affluence has led to the revival of these pseudo-kopitiams.
    All of these are just Malaysia Kopitiam as I'm one of the citizens who also enjoy in kopitiam.

    I don't think you can split between "western" and "asian" on the knife front - waboucho - Japanese knives, have a whole plethora of varieties ranging from the ever present Santoku and Gyuto in home kitchens to the specialized varieties like yanagi and unagi-saki that exist to do stuff.

    Food allergyns good.
    And not handling food with bare hands another good point.
    I tend to grate a whole block of cheese then portion into multiple food boxes or ziplock bags to freeze. Since I stopped handling portion the grated cheese in fridge it lasts a lot longer, like from 3 to 4 days upto a couple of weeks.
    So cheese spoilage way down if I don't use.

      What is cooking semi-professionally? Does that mean you get paid for it but you are not in charge of recipes, or is it more like you sell plates on the side/for events when you can but it’s not your main source of income?... not trying to be smart just curious

    kopitiam = coffee shop, kopi = coffee (in Malay), diam = shop (in Hokkien/ Min Nan dialect). Its common in South East Asia, operated by NanYang (Southern Ocean) Chinese diasporas. Patrons can be found frequent the coffee shop at breakfast or tea break hours, common food served is Margarine / Kaya (Coconut Jam) spread toast with some sugar sprinkled on top, paired with half boiled eggs and a cup of coffee, some nasi lemak (coconut milk rice with some friend chicken or spicy paste with anchovy ) or some other local cuisines

    Chef Brian, we use Kopitiam in Thailand as well. My region has a lot of Chinese immigrants from the Qing Dynasty (~1800s) who moved for better economical opportunities.
    I recognize some of these Hokkien and Cantonese words used interchangeable with Thai, Cambodia, and English. Border towns are always so wild in terms of dialect and borrowed words.

    IMO although Uncle Roger's use of MSG is definitely overboard, I think the amount of garlic he uses to may be okay in egg fried rice that also has shrimp in it. Those two ingredients enhance the umami. Of course, for the best result, we can go the Esther route of cooking the rice with shrimp stock, making shrimp paste from the shrimp shells & putting that paste in the rice while cooking.

    It’s a preference with the order of the egg, I’m white British and used to go the same way mr roger does, I now put egg after the rice. I use Korean soy sauce now in almost all cooking where soy sauce is required. Even put a bit where it is unusual in ragu for example in part replacement of salt.

    Peanut oil is safe for people with peanut allergies. Refined peanut oil doesn't have the proteins in it that people with peanut allergy are allergic to. That is why peanut oil is good to use in commercial kitchens. Also has a very mild flavor and smell.
