Early Breakfasts in Johor Bahru (near JB CIQ)

I have often been asked to suggest where to have a good early breakfast in JB, especially by my Singapore friends. My friends were looking for a convenient place for a tasty light meal and coffee or tea before hitting the North-South Highway to go further up north, e.g. to Malacca or Kuala Lumpur, KL.

There are many breakfast options - this list keeps to those stalls and shops that are opened early for business by 7:00am and are just a short and uncomplicated diversion from the JB CIQ. Of course, this list is a living document and more stalls/ shops will be added as I discover more good early breakfast places. As always, I appreciate your suggestions :))
