YA KUN KAYA TOAST

Ya Kun Kaya Toast was founded by Mr. Loi Ah Koon, an immigrant from Hainan Island who was 15 when he first set foot on Singapore soil. The business has its humble beginnings at Telok Ayer Basin along Shenton Way in 1944 and the heritage brand with more than 75 years of history now has gained regional and possibly worldwide recognition for its nostalgic local food products, cosy ambience and customer-centric service. The special blend of coffee powder, simple fare of soft-boiled eggs, toast slathered with special homemade kaya and layered with melted butter have had locals and foreigners alike flocking to its outlets. Ya kun continues to spread the love for its signature kaya and aromatic coffee, preserving a cultural heritage and brand that captures the true meaning of ‘The Toast that binds.... Kinship, friendship, partnership’.
