It's a blend of Nanyang kopi (sock brewed Robusta coffee with condensed milk) with Milo (chocolate flavoured malt powder).

The Toast @ Mount Austin JB. A Contemporary Kopitiam (Coffee Shop)

The Toast coffee shop really needs no introduction for Johor Bahru folks - it is a very popular place for traditional Nanyang coffee, toasts, eggs, and the full range of local favourites like mee siam, nasi lemak, etc. I've been to The Toast's outlets in Johor Jaya and Permas Jaya, but was first time here at the Mount Austin branch. (They have one more outlet in Taman Ungku Tun Aminah.) Our experience at Mount Austin was good, as expected of The Toast.

Here is an old school Hainanese kopitiam which is well known to Ulu Tiram folks but still hidden under the radar from most people outside. I am fortunate that my Johor kakis John and Foo shared 衛生園茶餐室 kopitiam with me 😄
Pan Swee Cafe in Medan Selera Maharani, Muar 方水茶室
Bloggie friend Tiffany's aunt brought us to Pan Swee Cafe in Medan Selera Maharani in Muar 方水茶室 for her favourite, must have morning coffee.

Medan Selera Maharani is a typical small town food centre and market place. Lots of people, laid back, relaxed, warm and friendly.

People gather here for the good food and coffee. The friendly gentleman on the right said that "if you did not come here to drink coffee, you have not been to Muar".
At Medan Selera Maharani, it's Pan Swee Cafe's Nanyang kopi (Malaysia/ Singapore style old school coffee which is made with by roasting locally grown Robusta beans, corn, sugar and margarine).
Corn is used as a cheap filler, sugar to mask the bitterness of Robusta and margarine to smooth out the harshness of the beans. Nanyang kopi is a comforting beverage from leaner and harder times which we still love today.

The old kopi sock way of making coffee may seem simple but control of temperature, flow of hot water, and timing makes a lot of difference between cups of coffee.

See how thick that black coffee was when it passed through that sock?
Lim kopi (drinking coffee) is a very communal kind of activity and it doesn't have to be all coffee.

On this tray there is kopi O (coffee with sugar), kopi O kaw (coffee with less water), kopi C kosong (coffee with evaporated milk and no sugar), and Milo sio (hot Milo).

My kopi C kosong. My usual order of Nanyang style kopi.
I am more into specialty coffee nowadays, but ahhh...... a good Nanyang coffee is still sooo....... heartwarming and satisfying.
Pan Swee's kopi C kosong is round bodied, has a carmelly aroma, slightly savoury, it's bitterness smoothed and sweetened by the milk.

Yuki savouring her kopi O. Yuki is a kopiaddict fan who must have her cuppa to start her day.
Is Pan Swee's kopi good enough for Yuki?

I think so.
She couldn't have enough of it, so she bought 1 kilo of ground coffee to drink at home.
