It is located at Clementi Avenue 2, an aging HDB estate built around 1976. Perhaps they felt that they need as much luck! Thus not only they upsized the drinks to the five (5) ghosts of the N, S, East, West and central spirits; The Coffeeshop also offered each god each a cup of regular patron’s coffee + tea!. The only odd thing is just a plate of two slices of bread and plain water... hmmmm How considerate that they lined-up the cup handles assuming all the gods are right handed... a nice touch to smoothly get their cuppa!
