after my bowl of ramen at hakataya, i decided to call it a day and walked towards the carpark. as i passed pappa roti, the strong buttery coffee scent caught my attention so here i am...lining up like an addict. the small suburban bakery specializes in malaysian style sweet drinks and one type of bread: crispy coffee bun. i ordered a green tea latte frappe and signature bun ($7 total).
the coffee bun was straight outta the over with a fragrant crispy coffee top layer. the bun presents an addictive coffee, buttery and almost sweet scent. first bite and you will realize it's pillow soft, feather light in texture and matched perfectly with the crunchy coffee top layer. the surprise treat is a salted butter centre which adds a unique twist to the flavour profile. bravo! 5/5
the green tea latte frappe on the other hand was average at best with fragrant green tea scent but lacked the creamy and sweetness to make this drink shine. 3.5/5
hint: the coffee bun is perfect from my humble opinion. so do yourself a favour and follow ur nose and heart 😊!
