Another "Dahua" Hainan traditional coffee shop in Penang, which has been in business for more than 67 years, has closed its business with no successors.

Dahua Tea House in Yagalu, George City is a traditional Hainan coffee shop familiar to Old Penang. The coffee shop has been in business since the British colony in the 1950s.

Over the past few decades, the tables and chairs in the coffee shop still retain the wooden furniture features of the 1950s and 1960s, and several black and white photos of Hainan families hang on the walls, which are very cordial.

Every morning, customers drink tea, coffee, hard-boiled eggs and toast, as well as the famous Cantonese-style wonton noodles in front of the store, feeling as comfortable as going back to their old home in Penang.

Today, in Penang, where everything is bidding, a cup of coffee black has risen to 1 ringgit 20 cents, but in the humane Dahua coffee shop, a cup of Hainan coffee black is still sold only 1 ringgit.

Old Mr. Chen Xingquan, a coffee shop operator, was reluctant to say goodbye to his regular customers.

Chen Xingquan, an 85-year-old coffee shop operator, told Guanghua Daily that he was born in Thailand and began to move to Penang to run Hainan coffee with his parents at the age of 5. It has been more than 60 years in the twinkling of an eye, and his parents have both died for many years.

Mr. Chen has seven children, all of whom have their own careers and families. There are too many memories of him in the old house. He has been silently running the coffee shop left by his parents for many years.

"I was old, and the children advised me to retire. Today is the last day of the coffee shop. Come down, I don't know how to live. "

The old man, one of his sons, may use the old shop to run the bread business. The old couple who sell wonton noodles in front of the store will transfer the stalls to a nearby coffee shop to continue their business.

The last day of Dahua Coffee Shop.
