XiXiang Kaya Kopitiam — Restaurant in George Town

TL;DR, You're better off getting kopi ais and Gardenia pre-packed from the food court. Pricey, inedible and coffee was just disappointing.

Having to wait for an upcoming appointment led us to this corner of disappointment as most eateries are not operating yet.

There is no service from the very start. Everything is self service, from ordering to even collecting your food. Menu is on the counter, no recommendation by the cashier as she just waits in annoyance for patrons to order.

Food was just sad, somehow they can screw up the entire plate of nasi lemak with nothing but the cucumber being edible. Rice was unevenly cooked, bits and pieces of tough uncooked rice, crusty burnt santan / coconut cream on certain edges, creating that tough exterior. Rice was just all smell and no taste, some salt wouldn't hurt your costs that much.

Sambal chicken was just slathered in sweet chilli, it is not sambal. Nothing special besides borrowing some flavour for the bland rice. Coffee was just too sweet, even requested for less sugar / sweet option. Kaya is just sweet on sweet. No creaminess or even the custard-y feel.

I can't post this comment if I won't give at least a star. You don't...

Super crispy crunchy toast with real homemade kaya, combined with flavorful iced coffee!! They have different options for the toasts, and you can buy the kaya in a mason jar as well. It was so amazing, I needed to muster up my inner discipline to resist getting another order. Don't worry it's not burnt at all and there's no bitterness to it. Super joyful afternoon snack after walking around...
