The Tepen
Inside The Tepen — dining room with hanging tiffin carriers, vintage furniture and warm light

Est. 2019 · Sungai Ramal, Kajang

A hidden gem café in Kajang.

Modern Asian-fusion cooking that emulsifies tradition and modernity — served all day, under the tiffin carriers.

What is Tepen?

Named for the tiffin carrier — the mangkuk tingkat.

“Tepen” is a Malay word for the tiered container that carries food — known across the country as mangkuk tingkat. The café is designed around it: carriers hang above the tables, vintage Malaysian pieces sit beside modern lines, and the kitchen does the same on the plate.
