4 in 1 Instant Coffee

In most supermarkets, you can easily find different brands of instant coffee and most of them are either 2 in 1 or 3 in 1 instant coffee. Recently I saw a 4 in 1 instant coffee bag for sale in Johor Bahru. This coffee originated from Melaka and I have not heard of this brand called Meet U Malaysia Coffee brand. Anyway, this Meet U brand had 2 types of 4 in 1 instant coffee bags which I had bought.

First is the Melaka Gold White Extreme Coffee. It is a 4 in 1 instant coffee that is made of malt chocolate, Robusta white coffee, sugar and creamer. It is similar to cafe mocha and the good thing is that it is not too sweet in taste. Overall the taste is nice and it is creamer than the normal 3 in 1 instant coffee - perhaps due to the added malt chocolate.



The second 4 in 1 instant coffee is called the Black and White Platinum Coffee. It is made of White and Black coffee - traditional black coffee and Robusta White coffee, sugar and creamer. The taste is a stronger cup of coffee as compared to the above Melaka Gold White Coffee - which is my preference. And the coffee is not too sweet as well, which is good for me.




Just when I thought I have seen it all; I saw a 5 in 1 instant coffee on the shelf. This must be the mother of all instant coffee. The 5 in 1 coffee is made up of Tongkat Ali, Ginseng, White Coffee, Sugar and Creamer.

Rotiboy Coffee Bun in Johor Bahru

I was delighted to see a Rotiboy outlet at the Customs and Immigration center in Johor Bahru. The shop is opposite Starbuck Cafe and the KFC outlet. It is a small outlet - buy and go. Even before you arrived at the Rotiboy outlet, you can smell the coffee bun from quite a distance away.


There was a small crowd of people queuing to order their bun and pastries. I noticed that most people were buying the signature coffee bun. The cheapest coffee bun was RM2. I ordered the RM2.50 coffee bun which had coffee cream filled inside the bun. Another version is the coffee bun filled with butter cream also at the same price of RM2.50.


The coffee bun taste good while it was hot and crispy. I find it rather too sweet and the smell of coffee is not too overwhelming. Overall it was a nice quick snack but I don't think I would liked to eat 2 coffee buns - even though the paperbag says ' one is never enough '.
