Nescafe Latte Style is a new RTD milk coffee drink together with a new packaging from Nescafe!

Unlike the conventional tin can, Nescafe Latte Style is packaged in a plastic bottle similar to Nescafe Nesfrappe which are available in Singapore and United Kingdom.

Nescafe Latte Style tastes good with slightly frothy and hint of sweetness.

Nescafe Latte Style is available at selected Shell Stations in Malaysia for MYR 2.70.

Compared to our first visit to Chilla Cup, the food was less salty this time.

Like our previous visit, we upgraded our coffee to Latte for an additional MYR 3.00 each.

Chilla Cup Latte

Continental breakfast

We chose beef bacon, hash brown and scrambled eggs for our continental breakfast set this time.

The beef bacon was less salty and less crispy than the first time, but it was better this time. The hash browns were delicious while the scrambled egg was also less salty much to our likings.

Filled Pretzel set

Filled Pretzel set with pepperoni

We also ordered breakfast set B or Filled Pretzel set with pepperoni (beef) as our preferred filling. As the pretzel also has cheese, the mix of both cheese and pepperoni has made it tastes like pepperoni pizza. Having pepperoni pizza for breakfast was perhaps a bit too filling.

Besides pepperoni, one can also choose apple cinnamon, sweet corn, sweet potato, red bean or hotdog (chicken) for the filling.

Verdict: The food was less salty than our previous visit. We were glad the management took notice of our review and improved the food. We truly enjoyed the food and the coffee, of course.

Starbucks Valencia Frappuccino is Starbucks Malaysia new drink for this Chinese New Year festive season along with Valencia Macchiato.

Starbucks Valencia uses sweet Valencia orange syrup which makes the drink tangy and sweet and honey orange. What’s better than that?

Get it at your nearest Starbucks store today. Available at all Starbucks Malaysia outlets.

Nescafe Cafe Menu Mocha Double Choca is chocolaty and sweet. In fact, it tastes more like a cocoa drink than a cup of regular Joe. Despite that, Mocha Double Choca is simply irresistible and convenient if you feel too lazy to walk down to the cafe.

Nescafe Cafe Menu Mocha Double Choca is imported from South Africa.

Retailing at MYR 24.99 at Cold Storage.

Chilla Buzz

Chilla Cup has a disc-shaped pager like Tom Tom Coffee which vibrates once the coffee are ready to be collected at the counter.

Breakfast Deals at Chilla Cup

Every breakfast sets come with either Americano or Gourmet tea. An upgrade to Latte or Cappuccino would cost an additional MYR 3.00.

Chilla Cup Latte

As we weren’t a fan of Americano nor Tea, we upgraded our hot drinks to Latte.

The Latte was pleasant and aromatic as it was brewed from freshly roasted beans.

Continental breakfast

Breakfast set D consists of continental breakfast served with toast. For MYR 9.90, it comes with one choice of add-on sides while for MYR 12.90, it comes with any 3 add-on sides, MYR 15.90 comes with any 5 and MYR 17.90 comes with any 7. Add-on sides consist of beef bacon, hash brown, chicken sausage, baked beans, egg (omelete/scrambled), grilled tomatoes or sauteed mushrooms.

The beef bacon was quite salty, at times, I thought I was eating salty fish. The egg was also a bit on the salty side, so was the chicken sausage.

Pretzel set (Parmesan)

Breakfast set A consists of pretzel set and the flavors available are plain, original, cinnamon sugar or Parmesan.

Parmesan pretzel was also quite salty and cheesy as well.

Verdict: The coffee was good, the ambiance was not too bad as it is always nice to see white-collar workers walk past by starring at us enjoying a good cup of coffee at rush hour. However, the food was a bit on the salty side and could be better with less salt. Still, the breakfast sets are a steal as normally a cup of Latte/Cappuccino would cost around MYR 9.50 – MYR 10.50

Update: We visited Chilla Cup for a second time and found the food was less salty this time around.

Besides at Quill, Chilla Cup are also located at Solaris Mont Kiara and Subang Avenue Shopping Mall. Unlike Quill 7 Sentral which opens only on weekdays, the other branches open till late and on the weekends too.

Marmalade Cafe’s Flat White

Flat White is nothing extraordinary. The price of MYR 8.00 is a little steep though.

Marmalade Cafe’s Cappuccino

Cappuccino is just lovely even without the sugar, it tastes just right. Cappuccino is priced at MYR 9.00

Verdict: The coffee wasn’t so bad. The coffee art, of course, did add a little something to it which made the coffee tastes nicer. Coffee art is not a new thing — at least, we all know there are many cafes that have baristas who can make great coffee arts and decent coffee.

Cafe Le Passione’s Caffe Mocha

Caffe Mocha was love at first sight with the beautiful coffee art but nevertheless, it was nothing extraordinary and somewhat a little pricey for a hot drink at MYR 10.50.

Verdict: Not a bad cafe at all, it’s pretty quiet. However, the location is not ideal and the place is situated on a desolated shopping mall.

Espressamente Illy’s Espresso Shakerato Freddo

Espressamente Illy’s Espresso Shakerato Freddo is a double illy espresso, chilled and shaken with ice & liquid sugar. It is quite strong and not for the fainthearted. Espresso Shakerato Freddo retails at MYR 10.50.

Espressamente Illy’s Greco All’Italiana

Greco All’Italiana is illy’s funky version of an iced cappuccino. No doubt it is better than your regular iced cappuccino as not only it is well-balanced between ice, milk and espresso, it has a little bonus of chocolate powder to top it all. Greco All’Italiana retails at MYR 13.

Espressamente Illy’s Spaghetti Carbonara

While the coffee are great, there are nothing to shout about for the food. Spaghetti Carbonara was not too bad, better than the average cafes that serve pasta but I expect it to be a whole lot better since Espressamente Illy ought to be Italian. Spaghetti Carbonara costs MYR 20.

Verdict: Amazing coffee. I’ll stick to my fave Neve Fondete the next time.

Sangaria Blend Coffee is a ready-to-drink canned coffee drink from Japan. Sangaria Blend Coffee is like your regular canned coffee with sugar. Nothing special.

Sangaria Blend Coffee retails at MYR 3.30 at Yumiku, Pavilion KL.

Starbucks Via in 12 Single-Serve Sachets

Starbucks Via in 3 Single-Serve Sachets

Starbucks Via Italian Roast

Starbucks Via Italian Roast consists of extra bold instant and microground coffee. The first taste, you can’t tell whether it’s brewed coffee or instant coffee as the bold flavor of the microground Arabica coffee hides the fact it’s instant coffee.

However, unlike what most people think, Starbucks Via is instant coffee but it’s not 3-in-1 coffee as there are no sugar or creamers mixed in it, therefore retaining the aromatic flavor of the coffee.

Starbucks Via Colombia is made of medium instant and microground coffee where it is milder in flavor and taste.

To make Starbucks Via coffee, you just need to add 180ml hot water, and perhaps milk, sugar or creamer too as necessary.

Both Starbucks Via Colombia and Italian Roast are originated from Colombia.

In Malaysia, Starbucks Via are available in 3-count (MYR 8.00) or 12-count pack (MYR 28.00), in two flavors — Colombia and Italian Roast in all Starbucks stores.

In Singapore, Starbucks Via are available in 3-count ($3.90) or 12-count pack ($13.90), in Colombia, Italian Roast and Decaf Italian Roast in all Starbucks stores.
