Nestled under the shade of a sprawling tree, Kedai Teh Tarik Mohammed Seik Dennu Khan is a popular spot among those from nearby neighbourhoods and office buildings.

This humble Indian stall exudes old-school charm thanks to its wooden panels, zinc roof, and plastic tables and chairs, drawing patrons from all walks of life.

It’s not uncommon to find a crowd of eager diners eagerly awaiting their turn to savour the flavoursome offerings that await them here. But what sets this spot apart is not just its tasty dishes but its neighbourly appeal.
