Huh? A coffee house serving Nasi Lemak and Indomie Noodles? That was our first reaction too – but trust us, it makes sense once you try it. Fangko House brings together the best of Indonesian comfort food and speciality coffee, all under one roof.
Seats are never in short supply here – but come lunchtime, the crowd of office workers and tourists starts to build.
Weekday Lunch Special
From the Weekday Lunch Special (11am to 3pm), we tried the HKS Ultimate Indomie Chimken (from S$10) and Wet Indomie with Chimken (with S$11). Yes — “Chimken,” it isn’t a typo. The difference between the 2 bowls comes down to the mushiness of the noodles, with the Wet Indomie topped with an Onsen Egg instead of a Fried Egg. We went for spice Levels 1 to 3, and safe to say, things heated up fast. Turns out, playing with fire (or chilli) has consequences. The spice scale runs from Spicy Level Baby (Not Spicy) all the way to Spicy Level 21, not for the faint of heart — and with an additional fee of S$0.50 to S$6 as the heat cranks up.
We skipped the classic Rice Chimken (S$9.50) and signature Ayam Berempah (S$16.68) in favour of the Fried Rice Kampung (S$12.38) – wok-fried rice loaded with boneless chicken, fried egg, shrimp crackers, and a solid kick of chilli by the side. The smashed chicken was coated with the right amount of chilli, so tender and easy to eat – the kind of addictive combination that had us reaching for piece after piece without realising it.
To bring down the heat from all that spice, we had the Fangko Honey Lemon Flower (S$5.50), cooling and refreshing; Kopi Kampung (S$7.20), a perfect caffeine fix; and Matcha Strawberry Latte (S$8.80), with a generous amount of strawberry jam for strawberry lovers. Other unique drinks worth trying are the Avocado Coffee (S$8.80), Fangko Melaka Latte (from S$6.80), and the World Famous Jamaica Rhum (S$7.50).
Pastries and Desserts
If those options are too heavy for you, opt for their Lemon Pound Cake (S$5.50), Plain Croissant (S$4.50), Kaya Croissant (S$5.50), or FangkoMisu (Tiramisu) with 2 variations available – Coffee (S$12.90) and Matcha (S$13.90).
