Revisiting Suukee Coffee

Suukee Coffee, Scotts Square

Let's start this entry with a date and a rant. We were here 24 Jan 2026 in the morning grabbing breakfast.

Not a fortnight back, there were social media posts about Suukee Coffee's CNY limit time items. Like their orh nee bak kua toast and orange kopi o which I was kinda looking forward to. And the sambal carbonara chee cheong fun. They were out of the orh nee bak kua toast today and CNY is still 24 days away.

The CNY promo started more than a month from the actual event and they ran out of bak kua in two weeks? 🤔 Laughably, I even see the unimaginatively over-abused word 'viral' used on them. 

From my lens...
  • they suffer conflicting information on their opening hours
  • depend on "crowdsourcing" to share their menu online instead of providing their own
  • aren't exact responsive when you message them
  • it would be nice if they'd indicated somewhere that some things are lunch only instead of needing us to find out from the ordering kiosk
Some priorities just aren't there.

End of rant.

Suukee Coffee, orange kopi o hot

That orange kopi o, didn't expect them to serve them hot. Nice.

Suukee Coffee, orh nee matcha toast
Suukee Coffee, orh nee matcha toast

Love the matcha orh nee toast. Nice green tea flavour with the creaminess from the yam puree.

OG orh nee toast also not bad. It's the one you can taste the yam the most.

Suukee Coffee, spam omelette toast

Decent spam omelette toast...spam's kinda small here.

Suukee Coffee, half boiled eggs

What's great about eggs here (at least for me) was that they crack them for you. Just like Ya Kun. But the eggs we got today were watery. So unlike Ya Kun, they don't discard the poorly done ones.

One week later......
Suukee Coffee, orh nee bak kua toast

Managed to get their orh nee bak kua toast this time round. I like the sweet smoky flavour from the bak kua that came through even though that meant that the orh nee was mostly relegated to just a creamy texture in the background.

Suukee Coffee, matcha butter toast

Matcha butter toast was not bad. Wished the butter was bigger/more distributed.

Suukee Coffee, sambal carbonara chee cheong fun

Finally got to try this sambal carbonara chee cheong fun. First thought that came to mind was the lao gan ma chee cheong fun from Surrey Hills. That one was better. This didn't taste as nuanced and packed less heat though I wouldn't mind coming back for them. No it didn't taste anything like carbonara.

Suukee Coffee, curry chicken kolo mee

Got a curry chicken kolo mee. The curry needed salt. From this, one could surmise that Suukee either i) had no idea what they were serving ii) are poor judges of whether food was delicious. Or perhaps both.

Suukee Coffee, curry chicken kolo mee

There was just about enough for the noodles to soak them up. Those tau pok in the curry might have been thrown in at the last minute because they were dry-ish inside and did not absorb the curry at all. The rendition of curry chicken kolo mee from Traditional Sarawak Kolo Mee beats this hands down.

Suukee Coffee, orange kopi o

Orange kopi o ice's not bad.
