Sam Yat Coffee is the newest concept of Tiong Bahru Pau at 241 Outram Road, doors away from the Tiong Bahru Pau branch at 237 Outram Road. Apart from their Pau offerings, there are also economic bee hoon, Mee Rebus, Curry Chicken, Chee Cheong Fun etc on the menu, and dessert lovers would definitely find their Bingsu affordable given they all costs only $6. Also available ala-carte, the set comes with the usual suspects of soft-boiled egg and a drink. I like the fact that they have used white bread here for the toast instead, but the toasting felt a little overboard with too much charred bits on the bread which made it feel a little unpleasant — the portioning is butter and Kaya was decent enough though given they are cut into tiny strips half the size of the entire loaf. Soft-boiled eggs were a little overdone for I would have preferred a more runny egg than clumps of solid egg white. Kopi was not too bad, but it's the sort that's a wee bit watered down and could have been better if it was more aromatic.
