Mei Guang Tea House in Brunei.
I went back to Mei Guang Tea House in the old town of Brunei for a Hainanese breakfast. The owner is from Hainan, his wife is from Xiamen, and the staff are all from Indonesia. Since they mostly serve the nearby office buildings, it is usually busy. It is quieter on weekends, and they have fewer steamed snacks available. We ordered a large chicken and radish bun (dabao), a red bean paste bun (doushabao), beef porridge with small fried dough sticks (youtiao), longan herbal tea, stir-fried noodles, and steamed dumplings (shaomai). Next time, if any friends (dosti) come on a weekday, they should try the other dishes. The Fuzhou-style 'fortune' rice noodle soup, dry-tossed silver needle noodles (laoshufen), and chicken intestine noodles are all worth eating.
