Welcome to Mel's Kopitiam.
The menu isn't printed—it's painted.
Halfway through my Malaysian Flavours series, I've been collecting the tastes of home in miniature watercolours. Each piece, no larger than 6 × 8 cm or 8 × 8 cm, is painted on 300gsm Potentate watercolour paper and serves as a tiny tribute to the food, drinks, and desserts that have shaped our everyday lives.
There are still a few empty seats at the table...
What Malaysian favourite should I paint next?
