I often use takeout from this restaurant. The salad set costs 700 yen and sells out quickly, so I go to buy it early. It includes chicken, various vegetables, and pasta at the bottom. The sauce is delicious.

Kaya Toast is a popular restaurant from Singapore. I used to enjoy their food when they had a store at Lalaport Toyosu. I was disappointed when I found out that the Lalaport Toyosu store had closed, but then I realized they had a location in the Kasumigaseki Building, so I decided to visit. It was previously where McDonald's was located. It was 12:10 on a weekday and the restaurant was empty, but there were 5 people waiting in line at the counter (probably due to the time). After carefully reading the menu, I hesitated between the Kaya Toast Set (700 yen) and the Kaya Sandwich Set (950 yen), but ultimately chose the Kaya Toast Set because it came with 2 eggs. However, when my order was ready, there was only 1 egg. When I questioned this, the staff confidently told me, "We are giving only 1 egg due to a shortage." They showed me a small notice on the counter as evidence. However, the large panel in the restaurant still stated that the set came with 2 eggs. If there was a change, they should have updated the panel or informed me when I placed my order. The contract is only valid if both parties understand the terms. I understand that eggs can be expensive, but they should have just raised the price openly. The Kaya Toast Set comes with 4 slices of toast, so it is only fair to have 2 eggs. This kind of deceptive service is unacceptable to consumers. Goodbye Kaya Toast. I now understand why there are fewer customers compared to other nearby restaurants. Thank you for the meal. I was so angry that I forgot to take a photo of the Kaya Toast. I apologize.

Located in the Kasumigaseki Building, this is a specialty store for "Kaya Toast". It is the first Japanese branch of the Singaporean long-established store "Ya Kun Kaya Toast". They open from 8:00 in the morning, offering "Kaya Toast" and "Kopi" from the morning just like in Singapore, as well as serving dishes like Chicken Rice and Laksa. You can enjoy Singaporean local cuisine in a casual atmosphere. The store opened in April 2021. There is also a Tokyo International Forum store. It is located about a 2-minute walk from Toranomon Station Exit 11, inside the Kasumidining on the 1st floor. (There used to be a McDonald's here.) I first encountered "Kaya Toast" not in Singapore, but in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I liked the Kaya paste that I had for breakfast and bought it as a souvenir. When I found out that I could taste the same "Kaya Toast" in Japan, I decided to visit the store. I visited in the morning. The store is spacious with plenty of seating. There are only table seats, so if it's crowded, make sure to secure a seat beforehand. Since it was not crowded, I was able to secure my favorite seat. The atmosphere is comfortable. You place your order at the counter, and when the buzzer goes off, you go pick up your order. The service is friendly and pleasant. The menu includes the following items (prices include tax): - Kaya Toast: Toast with Kaya jam (made from eggs, sugar, coconut milk, pandan leaves, etc.) sandwiched in between. Butter or Sugar (each 480 yen), Peanut (540 yen), Set (700 yen). There is also a half set available. - Toast Witch: 3 types (each 550 yen, set 950 yen) - Chicken Rice, Chicken Curry (each 950 yen, half 650 yen) - Laksa (Prawn, Chicken) (each 1,050 yen, half 780 yen) - Drinks (Hot, Iced) Kopi (Coffee), Tea (R 350 yen, L 400 yen) Condensed milk, milk (unsweetened) available for an additional 50 yen. They also have Lemon Tea and Yuanyang Tea. I ordered the following: It was served in about 13 minutes. - Kaya Toast Set (700 yen): Kaya Toast, Butter, Soft-Boiled Egg, Drink. It is a more cost-effective option than ordering items individually, but the soft-boiled egg, which was listed as 2 pieces on the menu, was actually only 1 piece. (One egg was sufficient in terms of quantity, and considering the rising cost of eggs, I understand, but I would appreciate it if they could update the menu or provide an explanation.) - Kaya Toast: Two slices of whole wheat bread (about 12 slices) with Kaya paste and thinly sliced butter in between. It is cut into bite-sized pieces for easy eating. The Kaya paste was not as sweet as I expected, and when combined with the salty butter, it created a lingering deliciousness. Next, the classic way to eat it. Adjust the soft-boiled egg to your liking with soy sauce (sweet Singaporean or Japanese) and black pepper, and enjoy it while mixing it with the toast! The sticky egg yolk, sweet Kaya paste, and soy sauce-coated toast are also delicious. - Coffee with Milk: I chose black coffee. It has a rich flavor and tastes good on its own. It also pairs well with the Kaya Toast. I spent about 25 minutes there. The portion was just right. I was satisfied to experience the Singaporean vibe from the morning and will revisit for the Laksa next time. *********** Ya Kun Kaya Toast: A "Kaya Toast specialty store" founded in Singapore in 1944. They have about 70 stores in Singapore and approximately 120 stores in 10 countries around Asia.

On a certain Saturday, I visited the "Kasumigaseki Building" in Kasumigaseki. This area, being a government district, is very quiet on Saturdays. I went to a cafe located in an office building called "YaKun Kaya Toast". I had been wanting to visit this place since it opened in Shinjuku after coming from Singapore, but never got the chance. The interior of the cafe had a retro vibe with a good number of seats. The menu offered not only Kaya Toast but also various Asian dishes. I ordered the "Kaya Toast Set" which came with Kaya Toast, butter, soft-boiled egg, and a drink. The drink I chose was coffee with condensed milk. The soft-boiled egg was served with Singaporean soy sauce. The Kaya Jam, made from sugar, eggs, coconut milk, and pandan leaves, had a unique taste that was both sweet and herbaceous. The butter added a salty touch to the sweetness of the Kaya Jam. The thin slices of toast were crispy and perfect for spreading the jam and butter. The soft-boiled egg dipped in soy sauce complemented the flavors well. The coffee with condensed milk was slightly sweet with a hint of bitterness. It was not as sweet as expected. Overall, the Kaya Toast was a pleasant surprise with its gentle flavors. It was a unique experience that left me wanting to try it again.

This is a shop originating from Singapore. It serves Kaya toast, which is toast with Kaya jam and butter, served with soft-boiled eggs. It is considered a soul food in Singapore. The shop is located on the first floor of the Kasumigaseki Building food court. The Kaya toast set, which includes a regular-sized coffee, costs 700 yen. In Singapore, you can get a similar meal for around 560 yen, so it may seem a bit pricey. However, if you think of it as entertainment food that allows you to experience the Singaporean atmosphere, it may be worth the price.

The days are passing by quickly and I can't seem to catch up with writing, but I continue to enjoy delicious food. At the beginning of March, I had an early lunch at Ya Kun Kaya Toast in Marunouchi Building. Although Ya Kun Kaya Toast is known for their kaya toast and coffee, the lunch menu at this office building location was surprisingly extensive. They had laksa and chicken rice, making it a typical Singaporean cafe. I arrived at a good time when it wasn't too crowded yet, but just 5 minutes later, it was almost full. I ordered the half portion of chicken rice, which was tender chicken with refreshing rice, garnished with typical Singaporean condiments and sauce. They also had a luxurious half set menu which included half portion of kaya toast and a drink (coffee or tea, not the typical kopi). They also had limited quantity menu items, so it's recommended to arrive before lunchtime if you have your eye on something specific. Thank you for the meal.

I wanted to drink a sweet drink that I had at this branch in the high-rise building district of Shinjuku before, so I revisited, but the shop was gone. When I really wanted to drink it, I searched and found out that there are branches in Kasumigaseki and Yurakucho as well. Starting from Shinjuku, I moved to Kasumigaseki on the Marunouchi Line. Kasumigaseki is quite a maze, but I finally arrived. It was a large dining area inside a big building. There was also a shared free space in front of the store, and this branch seemed like a local food court. I drank the drink I was looking for in the brightly lit store. In Singapore, coffee is called "Kopi." Yes, the sweet coffee is called (Iced) Kopi. The "C" stands for condensed milk. There were options like unsweetened condensed milk, milk-free with sugar, and more. The black coffee is called Kopi-O-Kosong. They also had morning and lunch menus, so I would like to come back and relax again.

I visited a dining place in Kasumigaseki where I tried a local dish from Singapore called Kaya Toast. Kaya Toast is a thin bread toasted until crispy, filled with Kaya jam (a paste made of coconut milk, sugar, and herbs) and butter. It is served with two types of sauces, a sweet, sticky sauce and a light soy sauce, to dip a soft-boiled egg mixed with them. It is usually accompanied by a coffee called Kopi, with a popular choice being a rich coffee with condensed milk. Personally, I prefer unsweetened coffee to balance out the sweetness of the jam. This dish is like the Singaporean version of Tamago Kake Gohan (egg over rice) for breakfast, but with a junk food twist that makes me want to come back for more. Aside from Kaya Toast, they also offer other dishes like Laksa that I would like to try.

"Usage situation" On weekdays during the day, it is quite empty and a hidden gem. Kaya jam is made from sugar, eggs, coconut milk, and pandan leaves (herbs), resulting in a yellow-green jam. It is a classic jam in Singapore, Southeast Asia, and other regions. The toast is lightly toasted until crispy, then generously spread with Kaya jam and topped with thinly sliced butter, creating a sinful B-grade gourmet treat. It is a high-calorie and super sweet dish, but the sweet coconut aroma and smooth taste will captivate you once you try it. It is a local favorite to enjoy Kaya toast with soft-boiled eggs. My cousin brings Kaya back every time they visit Southeast Asia, so I was getting tired of it, but after trying it again, it is still delicious. "Ordered items" Half set 1,000 Kaya toast with soft-boiled egg Chicken Laksa Coffee

I ordered a morning kaya toast set for 600 yen, originally planning to just have coffee. The set looked delicious, so I decided to try it. The recommended way to eat it is to pour sweet and salty Singapore soy sauce on the onsen tamago, sprinkle white pepper, then dip the toast into it. The toast has a subtle coconut aroma with butter in between, and is made with care. Mixing the onsen tamago and toast together was surprisingly delicious. The combination was unexpected but satisfying, similar to a familiar breakfast pairing. Overall, it was very tasty, especially with the white pepper.

I came back in search of the unforgettable Kaya Toast. The crispy toast with Kaya jam inside is exquisite. This time I had it with butter and sugar. Even without the soft-boiled egg, it was delicious. But I highly recommend having it with the soft-boiled egg! The Kaya Toast is so good that you'll want to eat it again after a few hours. Highly recommended. The spacious and open interior of the restaurant is also nice.

He visited the place for breakfast, but had a late lunch instead. After much deliberation, he ordered both butter and kaya jam, and butter and sugar on whole wheat toast, which was small and about 6mm thick. He dipped the toast in a mixture of black soy sauce and a soft-boiled egg. The light green kaya jam had a texture similar to strained sweet potatoes and a perfect level of sweetness. They were also selling their own brand of kaya jam for 1,500 yen per bottle (compared to 537 yen for Kaya Mira brand at Kaldis). The butter and sugar option provided a crunchy sensation of guilt. The condensed milk Singapore coffee Kopi was not too strong or sweet.

Singapore's classic breakfast dish, Kaya Toast, is a must-try for those who want to feel like a top student in Southeast Asian cuisine. I decided to visit the Ya Kun Kaya Toast branch in Kasumigaseki, one of the three locations in Japan, to experience the authentic Singaporean breakfast. The atmosphere in the food court-like setting was calm, with a few customers already seated. I ordered the Toast Witch Set, which comes with Kaya Toast and an additional W Toast, choosing Teriyaki Chicken and Egg Mayo as toppings. As I waited for my order, I observed the office workers in the area relaxing on the open sofas, engrossed in their smartphones, creating a slightly unusual ambiance. The location of the branch in Shinjuku and the International Forum in Japan's top business districts seems to faithfully replicate the original Singaporean branch, catering well to nomads and office workers. When my order was ready, the staff explained how to enjoy Kaya Toast - by adding dark soy sauce, white pepper, and dipping the soft-boiled egg into it. I imagined the unique flavors of Southeast Asia as I followed their instructions. The toast, made with whole wheat flour, had a slightly over-toasted texture, resembling a rusk rather than traditional toast. The Kaya jam was not overly sweet, with a coconut-derived sweetness that was intriguing. Adding the dark soy sauce and white pepper to the toast, along with the soft-boiled egg, created a unique blend of flavors that was both surprising and delightful. Although the Teriyaki Chicken and Egg Mayo toppings were unremarkable, I felt that pairing the toast with Laksa or Chicken Rice might have been a better choice. I also learned that in Singapore, coffee is known as Kopi, and is typically sweetened with condensed milk, similar to Vietnamese coffee. I opted for an iced version due to the hot weather, but I should have tried the traditional sweetened milk coffee instead. Overall, the experience of trying Kaya Toast and the unique Kopi was an interesting glimpse into the diverse flavors of Asian cuisine. I also purchased a jar of Kaya jam to enjoy at home, spreading it on high-quality bread for a delicious treat that reminded me of my visit to the Ya Kun Kaya Toast branch.

I had lunch today at Kasumigaseki Building's Kasumi Dining, where I tried the Yakun Kaya Toast. This dish is known for its large portion, and I also ordered the Chicken Rice. The chicken breast was moist and flavorful, especially when paired with the cilantro. The dark sauce added a rich taste, while the chili sauce provided a spicy kick. My favorite was the ginger sauce, which had a familiar yet delicious taste. The rice was fragrant and different from the usual Japanese rice. Overall, I enjoyed the meal and I think the highlight of this restaurant is the Kaya Toast. I plan to try the Laksa or Curry set next time. It's interesting to think about how many Tokyo Domes would equate to a half portion at this restaurant. It can be confusing to compare sizes using different objects.

I ordered two sandwiches, half a kaya toast, and a drink set. It cost 800 yen. I thought it was only for morning, but it turns out they have a great value set available all day. The kaya toast was delicious as always, similar to chestnut jam. The sandwiches were crispy, with egg and teriyaki chicken inside. The egg was tasty, and the teriyaki chicken was slightly sweet and savory. It's just right to dip the leftover onsen egg from the kaya toast. The interior of the restaurant mimicked a local food court, and it was clean. I really liked the taste, so I would like to come back. There weren't many customers, and the staff were friendly. If you're not sure how to eat something, they will kindly explain. Also, I made a reservation and received points. When I mentioned my reservation, they checked if I could use the points, which was very helpful. (I've had experiences at other places where I forgot to use my points and ended up losing out). You can accumulate Mitsui points.

Singapore's classic breakfast staple, "Kaya Toast," can be enjoyed at a precious and much appreciated cafe. Ya Kun, which I have been grateful for in Singapore, has three locations in Tokyo: Shinjuku, Marunouchi (International Forum), and Kasumigaseki. I have visited the Shinjuku location before. The Kasumigaseki location, like the Shinjuku one, is spacious and relaxed, with free Wi-Fi available for office workers to spread out and work on their PCs. The highlight this time is the "Kaya Jam." I decided to enjoy it as part of my breakfast. This "Kaya Jam" is available for purchase at the official online shop of the cafe, but it is being sold at a significantly discounted price at the store. This is part of a campaign commemorating the 55th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Japan and Singapore. I ended up buying two 290g jars of it... Looks like I'll have to eat a lot of it (laughs). I might try it with various types of bread. - Morning Kaya Toast Set @ 600 yen (tax included): A surely cost-effective set menu. Buttered Kaya Toast with two soft-boiled eggs. The drink is Kopi with both condensed milk and evaporated milk for a double milky goodness. - Kaya Toast: The toast is crispy and generously spread with Kaya Jam and butter, creating a smooth and rich sweetness. I just love this coconut-based sweetness! The soft-boiled eggs with pepper and dark soy sauce pair perfectly with the Kaya Toast, enhancing the overall experience. - Kopi: A hot cup of coffee with abundant milky sweetness and a tempting sweetness. I find myself wanting to drink this double milk coffee instead of black coffee. I also have a slight preference for drinking it in a mug... maybe because they served it in a mug in Singapore. - Solo breakfast - Visited on a weekday at around 10:02 AM - The staff was absent, so I sat and waited - A few minutes later, with no other customers, I placed my order

I was surprised to see a cafe serving kaya toast land here. The underground food court at Kasumigaseki Building is the perfect location for it. It reminded me of having breakfast at a food court in Singapore, eating kaya toast and ramen like the locals. The kaya jam is very sweet. They sandwich it between thin toast and dip it in onsen tamago (hot spring egg) before eating. I was a bit surprised because I had never tried it with onsen tamago when I had it in Singapore. Just having kaya toast wasn't enough for me, so I also ordered the chicken laksa (1,100 yen). The noodles were not like pho, they were more like cellophane noodles. (In Singapore, there is also the option of egg noodles like ramen.) However, the soup was quite satisfying. It wasn't spicy at all, so next time I want to try the condiments provided at the counter. Repeat rate: ☆☆☆

Since I found out about this place, I had been waiting for the chance to visit. Finally, my wish came true and I arrived before 11 am on a weekday. However, the sign said "CLOSED." I checked on food review websites and the restaurant's website, and it seemed like they were supposed to be open in the morning. Most of the other nearby shops also opened at 11 am, so I decided to wait until then to ask. Around 11 am, I saw the staff setting up many takeout bento boxes, so I asked if I could dine in, and they said it was fine. I still wasn't sure about the actual opening hours, but I was finally able to visit. This place offers Singaporean breakfast, with the classic choices being Kaya toast and milk tea. That's what I came here for. My companion was drawn to the French toast, so we ordered the Kaya toast and butter set with iced tea, and the French toast and Kaya set with orange lemon tea. We waited with a buzzer until our order was ready. I chose iced milk tea, which was good, but I think hot tea would have been better for the atmosphere. The tea was rich and the condensed milk added a nice sweetness. The portion size was satisfying. The long-awaited Kaya toast was a highlight. The thinness of the bread was key. The generous amount of butter paired with the sweetness of the Kaya jam was a perfect match. Adding a soft-boiled egg with soy sauce on top and scooping it up with the Kaya toast created a delightful sweet-savory combination. The disposable plastic dishes were a nice touch. When I visited Singapore, I had Kaya toast at several places in the city every morning. The Kaya jam there was more rough and coconut-like, while the one here was creamier and richer, almost like sweet potato paste or yam jam. My companion enjoyed the French toast, which was buttery and slightly sweet, with a noticeable saltiness from the butter. They ate it plain or sprinkled with sugar, both of which were delicious. The iced tea was also tasty, with a high orange flavor that added a refreshing touch. Those with a sweet tooth would be very satisfied with the prices here. Although I feel like I shouldn't eat this every day, I can't help but want to have Singapore's soul food every day. It was delicious!

This is a specialty shop for Kaya Toast on the 1st floor of the Kasumigaseki Building. I have been to the shop in Shinjuku (currently closed as of June 2021) several times, and I was surprised to find out that there is also a shop in Kasumigaseki, which is on my way to work. They open from 7 am on weekdays, so you can enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the morning. It had been a while, so I ordered the Kaya Toast with butter and coffee set that I always order at the Shinjuku shop. Kaya Toast, where you mix a soft-boiled egg with soy sauce and white pepper, was as delicious as always with its sweet and salty taste! I usually only drink coffee, so I also tried the tea this time, and it was delicious too! On another day, I also had the Egg Mayo Toast Sandwich, which was simple and tasty.

One of the classic breakfast dishes in Singapore is Kaya Toast. It consists of toasted bread spread with Kaya jam, a sweet spread made from sugar, eggs, coconut milk, and pandan leaf. Thin slices of butter are also added. While it may be a bit too sweet for some Japanese people, locals in Singapore often enjoy it with soft-boiled eggs seasoned with soy sauce and pepper. If you're a fan of Singaporean cuisine, you may have tried it at a local shop. I have personally enjoyed breakfast at Ya Kun Kaya Toast Coffeestall in Far East Square in Singapore. Although the brand had disappeared from Japan after previous openings, it made a comeback in June last year (2020) with a store in Shinjuku Sumitomo Building, followed by a new store in Kasumigaseki in April this year. The store in Kasumigaseki is located on the 1st floor of Kasumigaseki Building, just a 5-minute walk from Toranomon Station. The store has an open layout with no walls separating it from the shared space, giving it a food court-like atmosphere. I ordered the classic Kaya Toast set with butter, soft-boiled eggs, and a drink. As I enjoyed my meal, I noticed two Asian women sitting at a table behind me. One of them had a headscarf, possibly indicating she was from an Islamic country like Indonesia, Malaysia, or Singapore. The iced Kopi, a sweet iced coffee popular in Singapore, arrived within a minute of sitting down. It was followed by the Kaya Toast and soft-boiled eggs, served with soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and white pepper. The eggs were perfectly cooked and delicious. I savored the familiar sweetness of the Kaya Toast and enhanced it by dipping it in the soft-boiled egg with soy sauce and pepper. The combination was delightful, and I wished I could have savored it longer, but I had to leave for work. I heard that the Tokyo International Forum store will open next week, and I'm looking forward to visiting it soon.
