Old world flavour in Muar

MUAR: The management of a 50-year-old coffeeshop in Jalan Temenggong Ahmad here insists on using a wood-burning stove to boil water and make toasts, foregoing the convenience that a gas stove offers.

Although the price of wood is more expensive compared to gas, its second-generation proprietor Pang Lei Chern, 54, and her husband Tee Joo Chuan, 60, are sticking to the same tradition her father started back in 1970.
