Welcome to Kluang

Muhibah Malaysia.
We hope to make your

Having dishes up a
local menu of sorts for over three generations. Kluang RailCoffee exhibits the
authentic preservation and representation of our past, present and future.
Our Inheritance
In Kluang RailCoffee,
our heritage is the secret substance or ingredient that we offer to our
patrons.
Therefore, protecting
this heritage is essential. We serve a diverse community and welcome our
patrons to be part of this extraordinary heritage.
This achievement to
us, is intangible. In this era of globalization, many forms of heritage are in
danger of disappearing, threatened by cultural standardization,
industrialization and rural exodus.
We strive to preserve
our unique culture and to create a heritage that is sustainable. A major
challenge in taking our heritage into the new era is ensuring that growth does
not destroy the very qualities that attract patrons to Kluang RailCoffee. In
the first place.
Developing a heritage
is an incremental process. The heritage that is Kluang RailCoffee began 70
years ago. We are dedicated to continue to invest and commit to the
preservation of this heritage.
Our Concept ‘Your
friendly local kopitiam’
Kluang RailCoffee is
a medium-sized restaurant located in growing townships in Malaysia.
Our emphasis will be
on the inheritance of local tradition and heritage in a muhibah environment.
Our dedication and
commitment is to serve great food, build great customer relations and provide
superb service at affordable prices combined with an atmosphere of old charm
and nostalgia.
Background
Both of my parents born and grew up
in Kluang. My late paternal grandfather was the headmaster of a boys school.
During my younger days, I would go to Kluang during the school holidays to
visit my paternal grandmother as well as my cousins, who are about the same age
as me. Our relatives would often take us to the Kluang Station, usually to have
our breakfast although they are open other times of the day. Nowadays, I will
usually go back to Kluang during Chinese New Year and to celebrate my
grandmother's birthday.
About Kluang
Kluang is located right in the centre
of Johor. Kluang is from the Malay word "keluang", meaning flying
fox. Kluang was founded in 1915 to serve as the administrative capital of
central Johor. The main railway line passed through Kluang, and that helped
with the development. The line separates the town with other parts of Kluang.
In the old days, there used to be only one way to town. Whenever a train is
approaching, the crossing is closed and all the vehicles had to wait for the
train to pass. The gate used to be manually operated, but now it is done
mechanically. During the 80's and early 90's, Kluang is pretty much a quiet
town. I remember walking to and from town, with barely any traffic. Since the
mid 90's, Kluang has gone through a lot of development. However, one thing
didn't change, and that was the Kluang Station Coffee.
Kluang Station Coffee
The Kluang Station coffee is the
canteen of the railway station. This station is actually a major stop, meaning
all trains, including express trains, stop at this station. It now goes by the
name of "Kluang Station RailCoffee". According to the Kluang Station
franchise website, it started operating in 1938. It is now operated by the 3rd
generation of the Lim family.
The dishes that you can get here are
charcoal-grilled toast (bread or bun), half-boiled eggs, packed nasi lemak and
mee siam, curry-puff, and of course, the coffee.
They are known for its toast, where
they grill in on charcoal. It doesn't taste the same as those oven-toasted
toast. I remember at one time, they used oven to toast their bread. It didn't
taste the same, and they went back to charcoal. They used real butter (unlike
some places which uses marjerin). The kaya is made with the finest ingredients.
Just look at the picture below and I'm sure you'll start drooling.

Grilled on Charcoal
The coffee is 100% local and roasted
with butter. The nasi lemak is also legendary. In the old days, you have to go
really early to get a pack of their nasi lemak. They would deliver in cycles.
Whenever the new stock arrive, everybody would go and grab as many as they can.
I'm not sure if the nasi lemak today is the same as the one last time, but it
definitely still taste good. The sambal is still pedas as ever. However, it
comes pretty plain, with only the nasi and sambal. It does not have timun or
egg to go with it.
Nasi Lemak
The setting is still pretty much the
same with the old tables and fan. If you happen to drop by Kluang, you must
drop by the station to have a meal. If you're taking the train and it stops in
Kluang, you might have enough time to pack some coffee, although I would like
to warn you that the train stops for a minute only.

CUSTOMER SURVEY
Kenny was the first one to 'jump' into the ticket counter to buy the return tickets. But due to unforeseen circumstances, it was unexpected fully booked! Without any choices, we decided to buy Express Bus ticket back to Johor Bahru.
Despite any status of the return ticket, we still need to fill up our stomach at this Famous Kluang Rail Cafe (since 1938). This is one of our purpose to Kluang. It's situated exactly in the Railway Station, and this 'small' cafe was so crowded on the Sunday morning.

And don't forget to order the Toasted Bread, it's serve with thehomemade 'Kaya' and butter...Nice! (Pictures below...)
Mee-Siam in the plastic container.
