唔係出差的第一次星架坡旅遊。。我第一站就叫的士司機車我食地道星洲早餐。 佢叫我記住67 Kilinery,原來是連鎖點中“老店”,大家記住喇🌷。 雖然差啲座無虛席我又一條友,店員都好nice地幫我搵咗個靚位👍。 咖央西多有濃郁蛋味🥚,每啖都係味覺的享受😇😇,要親熱食。 腸粉其實同Hk 嗰d差不多,出色在嗰“捌”醬,好香口惹味。 飲埋杯黑咖啡,真係perfect match 😊.

This is my favorite Killiney outlet, compared to those in malls, I just felt this outlet have that kopitiam feel and eating there just fits the mood. Love the kaya toast there, especially the thick rich butter and kaya bursting with every bite, super heavenly!! Also tried the mee rebus on a recent visit, it was good too, very yummy and appetising.

I felt very relaxed to take a rich chocolate aroma Milo and a piece of toast during bustling hour. It was a great place for busy office staffs to rest and take a break, please stop all never-ending activities. Filled up by Kaya Butter, the bread was crunchy on the outlay and soft fluffy inside. Freshly heated up from oven, butter slowly oozed out became a heaven piece. Total of $2.00++, it was a good breakfast to start up your day.

I ordered the toast ($2, $1 for 1 toast) to share with my friend. I supposed by 1 toast, they mean one slice of the thick bread. It may look little but it's actually quite filling. At first I thought I've eaten French toast because there's quite a strong smell and taste of egg in the bread, but it's actually the kaya! One of the better toasts I've eaten so far. The bread is toasted to "not-too-dry" which is exactly what I like!! It leaves behind some softness of the bread after some toasting. Do give the toast a try! It left quite a deep impression on me.

Ordered the curry chicken with prata ($6.50) as well. The curry chicken was a little spicy for me (I don't take much spicy food). It has 3 chicken parts, and 2 halves of a potato. I think the portion was quite big, probably because I had the toast before this. I suggest sharing with your friend if you're having this not as a meal. The potato was slightly hard, the meat was probably cooked for too long. The curry was not bad, but it lacked freshness.

ordered a toast bread set ($4.50) for lunch. The set came with bread, soft boiled eggs and a cup of tea. Everything looked unappealing. The soft boiled eggs were unfortunately overcooked and did not have a pleasant texture. The toast bread was alright, with the right amount of butter and kaya. The tea tasted average. It is quite crowded during lunch hours and waiting time was approximately 10 minutes.

Growing up eating the traditional charcoal-grilled bread toast of Killiney Kopitiam, I cannot help but feel sentimental whenever I am in the vicinity of their flagship stall located on Killiney Road. With a humble beginning dating back to 1919, it is an eatery that I make special effort to visit whenever I am back home not simply for nostalgic sake but rather the quality of their kaya toasts and kopi-o-kosong that had kept my family as faithful patrons over the years.

For some reason, I had always enjoyed my Killiney experience better at their original stall rather than at their franchises which can easily be found islandwide. For the Gen X (1980s) people like myself, you would probably witness the transformation that took place for Killiney. I still remember going there to takeaway the kaya (coconut jam) to bring over to UK every single time I am back in Singapore for vacations. The packaging and naturally the price had improved and risen over the years. The lady boss which can always be seen behind the cash till would never fail to ask about my overseas experience while carefully bubble-wrap my bottles of kaya. I still remember my first bottle of kaya which came in one of those transparent-looking cheap plastic bottles typically used for takeaways with no labels or logo which I had to bring home and transfer over to Tupperwares before bringing them overseas. Since then, it had undergone much revision and that elegant souvenir-looking glass bottle of today with proper branding and label is surely a sign of progressive development.

At the constantly busy eatery, you would be expected to place your orders at the counter in person though the dishes would be served to your table. Is Killiney the best kaya toast chain in Singapore? Let our taste buds do the judging!

Kaya toast (S$1/pc)

Coming in a set of 2 pieces, it would come to S$2 for each order despite stating S$1/pc on the menu. We had 2 sets for sharing in addition to the two other types of toast they offered. As usual, the kaya stood up to the test with a strong egg flavour hinted by its pandan flavouring. Killiney's kaya has a unique differential element that sets it apart from its competitors and that comes down to the texture. With the abundance of eggs in the mixture, the texture of the kaya was cross-grained so expect dishevelled bits in that rich coconut jam. While it might lack smoothness in the spread for some, it suited my palate with the right level of sweetness, in excess just to please and not satiate one's appetite. If you are after a bold version of kaya dominated by egg and pandan flavours, then Killiney would be a good match.

If you are a kaya toast fan like us, you will notice that the char-grilled toast was thicker than the ones served at Ya Kun. It maintained a thin layer of crispness on the surface yet fluffy and soft on the inside. While we suspect that the bread used by both Killiney and Ya Kun originate from the same supplier from a humble bakery that operates 24 hours down at Whampoa (though Ya Kun serves a brown bread charactered by brown sugar), we are unable to confirm at the time of writing.

French loaf toast (S$2.10/-)

There were no reasons to resist this delectable toast with that sharp crispness on the beautifully char-grilled french loaf that would surely leave crumbs all over the table. The surface of the french loaf had a nice crust which was well complemented by the soft inside. Sliced into half in the middle, a generous amount of kaya and slabs of butter were sandwiched to give it oomph. You could tell from the grill lines that special attention was given to the french loaf to have it toasted on the sides to give it an even texture throughout.

The french toast would appeal to those with a heavier appetite as it had a strong egg taste to it. We loved the beautiful grill lines that were evenly cast across the soft toast. Expect the toast to be limp and soft, bogged down by the weight of the egg mixture soaked. It was however rather greasy but standalone, we liked that it was not too sweet as it would be expected to lay the kaya spread over the toast. A generous blob of the kaya was separately marred on the plate with a slice of the butter to go along.

Mee Siam (S$4/-)

With a sudden craving for spicy food, we decided to order the mee siam. Quite frankly, it was my first time trying anything on the menu other than their toasts. I found it to be mediocre in taste and at S$4, I was expecting more and better quality. There was a good crunch from the fresh bean sprouts but the spicy, sweet and sour light gravy lacked intensity and depth. The flavours were not bold enough to make it a memorable dish and the offerings were little with a hard-boiled egg, pieces of sliced dried bean curd with vermicelli. The flavours of tamarind and calamansi managed to add tang and acidity to the dish but it lacked heat from the spices. It was an okay version of mee siam but not a dish which I would travel to try.

Chendol (S$3.50/-) and Black Coffee (S$1.30/-)

We were attracted by the picture of the chendol dessert on the menu which were shown to be served in a tall glass. The dessert was in fact the first dish served, ahead of the savoury mee siam and the toasts. It was rather puzzling how the orders were being executed and I certainly do not regard it the norm to have my dessert (with shaved ice) before my mains.

When asked about the discrepancy on the presentation of the dishes, the lady clarified that it is now served in a bowl for dining convenience sake. So I ended up questioning myself why did I order it in the first place and it did not come cheap, compared to what you would get elsewhere at hawker centres. The shaved ice was rough and jagged and the gula melaka (palm sugar) was nowhere close to the kind of intensity that you would get from Jin Jin Desserts with their signature Power Chendol. This version tasted more on the creamier side, lacking the richness of melted palm sugar to deliver that oomph. The ingredients underneath that pile of shaved ice were plenty to go around sharing for the two of us, with the typical jelly noodles made from rice flour with pandan colouring and flavouring, red beans, grass jelly, creamed corn and not forgetting atap seed!

I remained largely dismayed by the difference in presentation from the menu and that shaved ice was unforgiving to say the least.

The kopi-o-kosong is a MUST-ORDER to satisfy the uncle-instincts in me and I always treasure the process of sipping freshly brewed dark roasted coffee through that petite coffee cup be it for reminiscence sake or to undergo that truly kopitiam experience and to end off with a contented 'Aahhhh' before returning the cup to its rightful saucer owner.

The coffee served here has a dark roast nature with good strength and carried an intense flavour. The acidity was mild and was my preferred kind of caffeine. My unusual preference for kopitiam coffee had received some criticism that I do not appreciate and understand what is the good coffee. Many would probably argue that coffee served at kopitiams are not quite as good when you draw comparisons with the flamboyant cafes as the coffee beans are usually blended with corn in the process of stir-frying to enhance the flavours. Well, you cannot quite expect a coffee priced at a quarter of what you would be forking out at premium cafes to be of the same standard. Also when you are constantly in need of caffeine (and we are talking in excess of 4-5 cups daily), you will soon find the need for cheap and good alternatives.

As Killiney continues to expand its business locally and worldwide, I insist in satisfying my craving for their kaya toasts at the original stall down Killiney Road whenever possible for sentimental sake and also I have the inclination that the original stall always produces the best quality possible.

The prices on the menu were inclusive of GST and service charge, so what you see is what you pay. Fact or myth, I leave it to your discretion. In order to answer the question of whether Killiney is the best kaya toast chain in Singapore, stay tuned for our follow-up review on its closest competitor, Ya Kun Kaya Toast.

I also like their design of nostalgia, it feels like there's a lot of tradition being handed down even though I don' really know the history behind Killiney's.

I ordered my favourite - half-boiled eggs and a cup of tea. It's really overpriced, the tiny cup costs $1.30 (same as Wang's), but it doesn't taste as good because of it's extremely strong flavor. It's not smooth too.

I hate it when I have to crack the eggs myself, and there's apparently too many self-service going on in the midst of a busy city!

one of the few places that still does mee siam the old way. it is nicely balanced and not overly spicy. it is in fact perfect! and the limes are important to have to break down the chilli. the bean sprouts are fresh and love the hard boiled egg in chilli sauce. the serving is very generous. the service is friendly and polite and fast. would order this over and over again. the assam is also just the right balanced in this dish. about $4

Never did i expect Killiney Kopitiam to serve good curry chicken too. I have always thought they are only famous for good coffee. I chanced upon it by chance and came back a few times since then. The spiciness of the curry is quite mild but rather aromatic. It came with a few pieces of potato and chicken. The chicken tasted soft but the meat still quite firm and intact. The potato was soft but not mushy. I like to have it with bread and coffee.

For more than a dollar, this cup of milk tea is served hot and is a relatively large cup of ginger milk tea. Milk tea is easy to find but good ginger milk tea is hard to find! This cup of ginger milk tea has a strong and rich taste of ginger that has a slightly spicy after taste on your throat. The ginger blends well with the milk and i not too sweet a cup. The ginger does not cover the milk taste completely and this cup of ginger milk is made fresh and hence a joy to drink!

Went to comcentre again to repair my iphone. Drop by here which is directly opposite Comcentre for lunch. I had their lontong again. Really madly in love with this muslim dish. The spiciness level is pretty mild if you don't add in those chilli paste. The cabbage inside is really fragrant and well cooked. The rice cubes are also very soft and fragrant. There's egg and beancurd skin as well. I like the taste of this entire dish. Will come back for more again in the near future.
