With a well preserved splash of heritage in its shop, the original branch of Ya Kun Kaya Toast at China Street was surprisingly empty at noon on a weekday. Or so I thought. Soon after we had our orders taken, a huge Japanese tour group arrived with their floppy hats, along with many people from offices nearby.As always, the kaya toast never fails to satisfy. You might agree that the traditional toast has amazing contrast ability. It is first warm, rough and crisp, standing somewhere between a bi

Ya KunFar East Square18 China Street, #01-01 S049560Chinatown, SingaporeAugust 2012Merlion Wayfarer was recently in Chinatown coz of a food craving - to try a 76-year tradition of coffee and toast. A picture of the toast and coffee set...Ya Kun does the toast just right - using browned bread roasted over a grill, the old way with charcoals. Unlike many outlets they don’t scrimp and save on the butter and kaya. Neither do they use Planter Margarine which leaves a bad aftertaste. That’s why the to

Mrupupup felt that the Ya Kun Coffee and Kaya Toast is the best at Far East Square outlet, 18 China Street #01-01. Ya Kun at this outlet serves the toasted bread and coffee that tastes more authentic than the rest of the stores in Singapore. The Ya Kun store was super busy on a weekend morning. With such long history of making coffee and toasted bread (since 1944), there are many outlets of Ya Kun's in other countries like Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Indonesia. Anyway, Mrupupup was at Ya Kun to hav

Tucked in the CBD area, you will find this little traditional breakfast place. I always love how Ya kun does their watery eggs. It doesn't have those translucent sticky runny stuffs floating in the eggs and it's not overly cooked also. Best of all, they open the eggs for us. There are other places that just gave you the eggs and you have to break them yourselves. Those are good once in a while but I certainly don't wish to dirty my hands much. However, whoever cracked the eggs for me left

Setting is great as in Far East Square which has shophouses that are unique and pretty. Low rise buildings make it special in the CBD. Very clean, tidy area.Value is bad since it is the most expensive kaya toast chain! It costs more than any other place for a breakfast set.Service is great since they take your order and leave you alone after sending your order. The coffee comes in a small cup and saucer which makes it moreish and authentic looking, rather than a large mug which can be overdosing

went to ya kun for a drink after my lunch. ordered a take away coffee as i don't have to finish the drink immediately and i can take back to my office to carry on.well 1 thing nice about the coffee is that it's slightly thicker than your normal average coffee. maybe particularly at the ones at china square there. reason being is probably it caters to the need of the working adults who need the caffine badly.overall i give the coffee 7/10 and it's thicker enough to last you through the afternoon

Another day after lunch, my colleagues and I headed straight to Ya Kun Kaya Toast for our after meal drink sessions. This outlet is always packed with working adults during lunch hours. So it was lucky that we managed to find a seat. I had my usual Iced Teh-O to quench my thirst after my lunch. Iced Teh-O never fail to refresh me after a heavy meal. =) I also like their kaya toast and egg set. The toast is crispy thin and simply yummy. Tried many half boil eggs, I still like Ya Kun's the best.

This is one of my most frequented outlets whenever I needed a cup of teh c or kopi to perk me up. But that very day, I decided to try something different which is the homemade iced barley water.It tasted good as it was neither too sweet nor dilute. The beads of barley were chewy as well adding to the flavour of the drink. The price was reasonable as it costs below $2 for a cup of drink. While the standard for barley should most probably be the same, I wouldn’t agree so for the tea, coffee and t
