In Singapore, one of our favourite past times is to hang out or stopover at an eatery selling kaya toast, coffee \/ tea and whatnots. I have a pet peeve over a particular such eatery of late. It is Toast<\/p>\n

I have a pet peeve over a particular such eatery of late. It is Toast Box. They are sprouting everywhere in shopping malls. Ugh. The Ya Kun Kaya Toast at Hougang Mall was recently replaced by Toast Box. Maybe it’s just me but I don’t understand why so many folks are still camping at their outlets. To be fair, their coffee and tea are decent. But I have also tried their curry, mee rebus, laksa, kaya toast, thick toast with floss, nasi lemak, etc. and didn’t like any of them. The new Hougang Mall outlet couldn’t even get their soft boiled eggs right when I was there – I was served with rather raw eggs – argh.<\/p>\n
On the contrary, I prefer Ya Kun’s fare. Their kaya-butter toast is delectable and goes down well with a cup of thick coffee. Check out their soft boiled eggs. They are perfect and beautiful. The whole egg slides out elegantly as one entity onto the saucer after cracking it open. Don’t you underestimate the finesse that goes into preparing such a simple dish. It’s awesome. :D<\/p>\n
Besides Ya Kun, Qiji is another favourite. We only discovered this neat little coffee place very recently. I tried almost everything on their menu and should conclude that they don’t disappoint. Their beverages are good with delicious local dishes such as mee rebus, mee siam, laksa and nasi lemak. I noticed that Qiji is popular with our Malay folks too. Yang and Hannah love their yam cakes drizzled with sweet sauce and never fail to order a plate whenever we have our breakfast hangout there. :)<\/p>\n
Go, Ka Yun!<\/p>\n
Go, Qiji!<\/p>\n
Shoo, Toast Box. Hee hee :)<\/p>\n
p.s. Just my 2 cents’ worth. Chill if you’re a Toast Box fan k? :)<\/p>\n In Singapore, one of our favourite past times is to hang out or stopover at an eatery selling kaya toast, coffee \/ tea and whatnots. I have a pet peeve over a particular such eatery of late. It is Toast<\/p>\n
