Corner favourite attracts crowds across generations

Tai Kong is in the heart of Chow Kit’s commercial area on the corner of Jalan Putra and Jalan Raja Laut.

IN the commercial heart of Kuala Lumpur’s Chow Kit district, Tai Kong coffeeshop stands out prominently at the corner of Jalan Putra and the main traffic artery of Jalan Raja Laut.

From the outside, it seems as if the outlet is split into two because there is a hotel entrance that separates the front segments but once inside, it’s clear that both areas are connected.
