Ya Kun Kaya Toast

Ya Kun, as always is one of my favourite breakfast choice of all times.
Something about that delectable toast makes me keep wanting for more!
The smell of that freshly baked toast always attract my nose and captured my heart and stomach at the same instance
As usual, stepping into Ya Kun brings about the olden days nostalgic feel
Not that that's a bad thing, it's always nice to settle onto the wooden stool and grab a marble traditional style coffee table to settle into comfortably!
When ordering, it's definitely nice to chat a little and exchange simple morning greetings with the aunties working there.
And it's great to know that while my order is being taken into and set the bread on toasting heat, I get to carry back with me my boiled eggs and cup of coffee.
It's my first time deciding to try their coffee since I'm usual a tea drinker except for ice coffee.
So that day, i surprise myself too when i heard me ordering the coffee
The first thing i did was to gently give my coffee a few stirs before i tried it to ensure that the sugar or condensed milk is being evenly spread.
I'll have to say i took a tiny sip before allowing myself a bigger sip since i couldn't taste much with the small sip, silly me!
The coffee was good I'll say, aroma taste of that coffee allows me to believe that i definitely made the correct choice that morning
Next, I'll have to jump into my eggs.
I love to crack, mix & stir and put a good amount of sweet sauce.
Usually, i'm a soya sauce person but only at Ya Kun, I'll put in the sweet dark soya
To me, i love my eggs as this half boiled kind so that it's cooked but yet runny yoke at the same time!
I was still savoring my eggs when the kind auntie brought over my bread and took back the number block that they usually gives customers so that they can identify us
I can't wait to reach for my hot toasted bread the moment my plate was put down (See my second photo for evidence of hungry me)!
The bread i realized, have to be eaten freshly toasted.
This is something that I always insist upon, to have hot toasted bread
I especially hate it when my bread turns cold and hard
So my usual practice is i drink a little tea or coffee in this case, eat my eggs till my bread gets to me and I'll definitely eat both the bread and eggs at the same time (Again, see that photo for that hungry lass)!
Best of both worlds
It's always nice to know that Ya Kun serves the butter in slices, on top of my kaya spread in between the toast.
That signature sweet tasting kaya, plus the heavenly butter in melting process when you bite into the crisp toast is just a so simple gesture that gives the biggest taste buds boost
I hope you're hungry when you read this as I'm definitely is craving for Ya Kun again now!
I'm rounding up this review the same as I'm rounding up that coffee of mine, leaving you wanting for more.
If you've not tried Ya Kun before, you honestly don't know what you are missing out!

The ya kun butter kaya toast at this place is highly recommended, especially on a rainy day. Infact the set meal is more value for money, as the tea is also included. The ice-cream toast, is very tasty. Reminds of the olden days in Singapore. Very affordable place to be at. It is very difficult to find a seat to sit, this place is always very packed, especially on the weekends.

SGD 10(Tea)

I tried the Tea Frostyz but it has nothing very special about the drink, just that it's ice-blended. A cup costs $3.80, if you would like to add whipped cream, it costs $4.20. 40 cents for whipped cream! I tried the one without whipped cream. The blended ice melted pretty fast, so it kind of turned out to be just teh-bing (iced milk tea). Imagine paying $3.80 for a cup of iced blended milk tea. I would not really recommend it as it's equivalent to ordering a cup of iced milk tea.

SGD 4(Supper)

Ya Kun at Woodlands Causeway Point have moved place after the renovation. As usual, the place will be crowded during makan time, and so I decided to take away my upsized coffee. I waited 10 to 15 mins before I was served. However, the taste of the coffee proved that its worth well. It does not taste like 3 in 1 coffee and smells great.

SGD 1.50(Tea)

I had reviewed many times on Ya Kun at several places and nothing could go wrong with their food as of now. As said, this food has always been my favourite at any time of the day and since spotted one here and couldn't resist the temptations so I ordered my usual set and enjoyed it. Often the staffs are friendly and there ain't any problem but I must applaused a staff here who were responsible of the hot beverages and all thru the processing of order( there were a queue), she smiled and greeted every customer! Very very friendly lady.

Brought a cup of iced coffee as the drink for lunch.
It has a smooth and rich coffee taste, sweetness level was just right, not too sweet nor bland. However, at the top of the Iced coffee, there was a layer of foam which I think should be removed so that the taste of the coffee will not be affected. The iced coffee is also available in two different size which is small and large. One of the famous dish of Ya Kun Kaya Toast will be the bread toast and the boiled egg which is a good alternative for breakfast.
