A rock musician, with a curious and mysterious identity, Chin Chong Lim life is anything but ordinary. There is no rock cynicism, pessimism or youth liberalism in him; instead, it is more about the love of life and the responsibility of family. Known as an artistic and musical talent, a motorcycle enthusiast, and for his pretty face (KK’s Ronald Cheng Chung Kei), Chong Lim is also the young proprietor of Lido Loong Mui Kopitiam who makes Hainanese coffee with skillful hands.
Chong Lim calls Lido a Chinese chess player’s paradise. At noon, just next to the Loong Mui Kopitiam, chess masters gather and line up for a decisive battle; the little dramas of joy and disputes also paint a charming landscape for Lido.
Towering among the old shops of Lido, Loong Mui Kopitiam has been in business for 50 years, with the secret for a perfectly hand brewed cup of Hainanese coffee passed down through three generations. It has witnessed countless Kopitiam romantic love stories and Chong Lim believes that true love does indeed begin with a cup of coffee with a bowl of its famous fish head rice noodles and fried chicken. Accompanied by 4A.G. rock music, you can call it the perfect beginning of the day.
