Pacific Coffee is a sort of Asian Starbucks. I can't say it's any better , but it was right down the street from the hotel on Hong Kong, so it was convenient.

As I was looking over the instant coffee options in the grocery store, an elderly Thai woman pointed to the Buddy Dean 3-in-1. The 3 is coffee, creamer, and sugar—all in one sachet. I picked up a pack of 25 sachets (which sells for for 75 baht or $2.30 or 9.2¢ per cup) and she nodded enthusiastically. Then she mimed adding a scoop of Nescafe Gold to the mix for a really good combination. i didn't get the Nescafe, but I did buy the Buddy Dean. It's terrible.
