Chin Mee Chin Confectionery (CMC) turns 100 years old this year, marking a century of delicious tradition and heritage in Katong, Singapore. Since 1925, this beloved coffee shop has served generations with its iconic kaya toast and traditional kopi, making it a cultural landmark.
A Century of Flavourful Tradition
When you think of breakfast in Katong, Chin Mee Chin instantly comes to mind. Imagine biting into a soft round bun, perfectly grilled on charcoal, generously slathered with homemade kaya—a secret family recipe—and topped with a slab of cold butter. Pair this with half-boiled eggs and a steaming cup of traditional sock-brewed kopi, and you have a breakfast loved by generations.
Commemorative Collectibles and Exclusive Gifts
