Kopilicious's Taman Sentosa outlet is located at the eastern end of Jalan Sutera, closer to Mid Valley Southkey Mall. Kopilicious's main branch is in Taman Molek, the Taman Sentosa outlet is the second in Johor Bahru and a third branch is in Kulai District. Kopilicious serves Malaysian delights and their kopi-bing (iced kopi) is hailed as the best in Johor.
Kopilicious serves a wide range of toasts and sandwiches with different fillings. For main dishes, there are combinations of rice, nasi lemak and noodle dishes with rendang chicken, fried chicken, chicken chop and others. Curry mee, prawn mee, mee hoon kueh, rice bowls, porridge and vegan meals are also available.
Kopilicious’s traditional kopi-O is thick and aromatic. Since their kopi-bing is the "best in Johor", it is definitely a must-try. The iced coffee has a well-balanced taste between traditional kopi and condensed milk — and less sugar for me makes it even more delightful.
The Rendang Chicken Mee Siam (仁当鸡米暹) is served with a sunny side-up egg and sambal chilli. The big chicken thigh, well-cooked until tender, is covered in large amount of non-spicy rendang sauce. The mee Siam tastes good on its own and is even nicer after mixing with the rendang sauce. Spiciness of the dish can be enhanced by the spicy sambal chilli.
The Black Pepper Chicken Chop (黑胡椒酱鸡排) is one of the best chicken chops that I have ever tried. The tender chicken meat is well-fried, non-oily and the batter is not fried till too tough — it can be easily cut with just a butter knife. The black pepper sauce gives the chicken a nice and tasty flavour.
Other than Malaysian dishes, Kopilicious's wide range of toasts and sandwiches are must-tries too. Top-left: The Sambal Egg Sandwich (参巴煎蛋三明治) has runny fried egg, cucumber, tomatoes and sambal chilli in very soft and fluffy bread. It has a flavour similar to nasi lemak. Top-right: The Butter Kaya Toast (牛油加椰吐司) uses green pandan kaya with thick slices of savoury butter in crispy toasts that still retain some softness. It is tasty and not too sweet. Bottom: The Sausage Pizza Toast (香肠披萨吐司) has chicken sausages laid on a thick bread with tomato sauce, covered with a thick layer of cheese and toasted. It has a nice "pizza-like" taste.
Kopilicious's dishes are delicious and reasonably priced and I am gamed to go for more, especially more variants of chicken chop and sandwiches.
