Hi Ghib-san! I'm a viewer guy in this video. Thank you for sharing the scenes in which I appear. I didn’t realize you were shooting when I sat next to you, so I was amazed! I enjoyed hearing your mom's phone call live. It was a fantastic experience. I want to have a laksa with more authentic taste in Singapore someday. See you in Singapore, Ghib-san!
The manager and staff are so eye candy, it's not authentic leh lol! Anyway, the kaya toast is really popular everywhere. Even Koreans will buy them bottles home when they visit here. Ya Kun managed to bring Singapore to these countries are amazing.
@@RO_JD you're mistaken they are not rude, they are just returning the favor because they choose to serve only good customers well. rude customers get rude treatment lor.
The manager and Nana is my favourite part of the video 😂. You don't see young people working in Yakun Kaya Toast here in Singapore so often. Literally made me fantasize of these two as a Main Characters in a Romcom Anime.
It was nice meeting you in Tokyo Ghib, and thanks for the 2nd round Kaya Toast as well 😂 Just like you mentioned on the video, a lot of foreign cuisines in Japan are localised so that its easier for the locals here to like the taste - just like how less oil is being used for all dishes on the video. Same deal as some of the Japanese food/restaurants outside of Japan. I wish more Singaporean chains (with options to have more authentic taste) would come to Japan!
@@GhibOjisan omg my go to place to have breakfast & lunch in Singapore i so love their toast & boiled eggs & kopi's my favourite company & brand in singapore , oooohhhh that food's in your video look's so yummy your food vlog is making me hungry in a good way lol , lmao enjoy your food's & kopi's Ghib cheer's . I'm glad that you & your wife went back to visit & see your mom & dad & brother.
Wait a minute… You started off as the Japanese that tries Singapore food and compare it to Japanese food - How it would be like in Japan / Similar food in Japan / What we have instead in Japan After staying in Singapore for so long and trying so much food… Now you’re the Singaporean going to Japan and comparing food there to Singapore food HAHA it’s like one big cycle
With a cute looking and handsome staff in Ya Kun Tokyo, I don't mind visiting Ya Kun everyday to eat there 😊. With local SG food in Japan, I wouldn't miss SG food so much even if I am working in Tokyo. Monday eat chicken rice, Tuesday eat prawn laksa, Wednesday eat curry chicken, Thursday and Friday I can just eat kaya toast 😊
It's really amazing to see that Ya-kun has expended to Tokyo as well, back when I was in School, we had to pitch to the Ya-kun executives for a business project and we proposed that they should consider expanding towards other ASEAN and western countries. Also told them that they could consider adding some Singapore food in the menu. Love to see it The quality of service in Japan's Yakun is no doubt looks better than our usual average Singapore Ya-kun franchise, the soft-boiled eggs looks much nicer than some of our singapore outlets not going to lie. Nice to see the passion of the staff Also the manager and Nana(really want to know her) is soo good looking, Wow O Wow Love the videos as always Ghib-san
So comforting to see the Japanese eating our ya kun and loving it! Always hear tourists raving about how they love Yakun so this really shows it 😊Also loving how your wife is joining in the videos as well with her inputs! Looking forward to hearing more from Mrs Ojisan 😊
As a Singaporean I actually prefer the steamed bread kaya toast more than the toasted one, but they don't have it on the menu in Japan lol. Was pretty happy when they came out with the idea of steaming it
Love the expression of Ghib San when he bit into the kaya toast… that sense of familiarity and comfort is second to none… 😂 thank you for promoting our local brand! 👍
Nana's pride and passion for Ya Kun ... I felt it. one day I would also want to visit Nana ! Also that other customer also voiced out something prevalent in being more authenticated version of local food. but to balance it to suit local palette is always the issue. At least we know what to expect now. so its all good. but I always preferred chicken rice to plain rice for curry too. so that will be on my list.
I really enjoy this episode of Yakun 🎉 I am so happy that Japanese people queue up at the store too 🎉 yeah 🥚 🥚 🍞 ☕️ thank you for featuring this again 🙏🙏🙏
Yakun has 2 different type of stalls in Singapore. Yakun Kaya Toast is what must people know, but there is also Yakun Family Café which serves proper food like chicken curry, nasi lemak etc. Also, though traditional coffee shops are almost always staffed by older ppl, the staff at west mall yakun family café is mostly young people!
Must admit that I was drawn to the video title with the yakun words❤️. I am going to send the video link to my friends. Initially, me was expecting to see the usual assessment of the food etc but I ended up laughing throughout. Firstly, steady lah. Ghib san approached the counter staff like a inspector from SG, testing ppl some more (kopi o kosong, teh-C etc). Then at some point, both he and wifey separately found the staff to be handsome and pretty. Aiyoh😅. But gosh $11 for chicken rice and $15 for a bottle of kaya... it's crazy lah🙉🥴! For laksa, SG price is abt $5.50-6dol while it's $7.20 in Japan. It's considered cheap oredi for Japan cost of living. The last part was equally hilarious, calling MIL and as a typical SGrean, her first response was how much for kopi. LoL.
Thanks for sharing your experience at Yakun! I was really excited when they reopened in Tokyo.a few years back. I've been to the one in Shinjuku and Yurakucho! I recall at that time they had to push back their original opening because the kaya jams hadn't arrived in time. They were selling the sandwiches, chicken rice and kopi but no kaya toast! Chicken rice at the Shinjuku store is quite tender but may need a bit more cooking at times.(they may have improved since I last went) Unfortunately the Yurakucho shop only sells the basic kaya toast and egg and beverages due to space constraint. My friend loves the jam so much that she rides her bike down from Toyosu to the Yurakucho shop when she runs out!
Hi Ghib, last month i just visit yakun n order the steam bread , very nice,,, that yakun toast in japan looks nice,, if the taste is change to japan standart it wont be authentic then,, anyway when u said “ singapore pride it hit me,, i felt it hahhaha, maybe becoz we lived in singapore n we always wants the best for singapore,, Thks for the video Huat Ah , 👍☕️🍞🍲😬
This must be the friendliest Yakun i've seen haha. Few years ago I tried to find their 1st outlet in Tokyo, but it was closed when I got there :/ After that due to tight itinery didn't return. I get to see one in action now!
Actually Singapore had Laksa, chicken curry, nasi lemak, prawn noodles, and mee rebus in some outlets of Ya Kun. It ranges between $5-$8 sgd with a drink. But that was like since 2020 till last year. Not sure why they removed it entirely now. Probably sales just weren't that great.
From the way I see their entire menu as you have tasted. It's trying to be localized. Meaning they are trying to cater towards the local's tastebubs. For the drinks wise they should have the option to see if they wanna try it less strong or the normal way. The reason why you usually see a lot of Uncles or Aunties behind the counter is because a lot of the youngsters nowadays dislike working F&B or simply hate working is a heated/warm environment. Overall pretty amazing that they replicated the ya kun look as well.
Wow look at the colour of the egg yolk.. can tell right away it's good quality. Anyway the two staff are absurdly good-looking. Are they the ones doing the cooking also? Don't see any kitchen staff leh lol
This video is so cute! As for the menu, i've seen a similar menu at bigger yakun stores like the one at changi airport T3! But its not a very common menu at all yakuns
Good, Ya Kun in Tokyo. Price is reasonable and food looks yummy. Surprised got Chicken rice and Laksa over there. Friendly service maybe must send our Ya Kun staff there for customer service training. This applies to Toast box staff also.
Recallled a comment from an acquaintance that pre-2010, the previous franchise (not this current one) located Ya Kun at Odaiba (the shopping centre beside the Statue of Liberty) …. But adding in chicken rice using Japanese grown chicken is a really ingenious/smart idea from this current franchisee 👍
I visited Singapore recently for the first time and saw YaKun everywhere! The toast was so good! I also saw many Japanese people there so I'm not surprised it's opening in Japan.
Ya kun to Singapore is like Ichiran to Japan.Unfortunately, there's no Ichiran outlet in Singapore yet. Bet it'll be popular if they set up one outlet here.
Yakun Famiky Cafes in Sgp does have chicken laksa, prawn laksa, prawn noodles, mee siam, mee rebus and 4 different types of nasi lemak. You can find these Yakun in Jurong Point, Bt Batok, n more.
I tried the egg in Yakun Japan and I have to agree that it taste and looks better 😂Not surprising considering they have alot of high quality produce in Japan

@Atsushi Sato
I can bring you to eat a famous laksa in Singapore :) and some other authentic food too
If Ya Kun were to be in a manga, the manager and Nana would pretty much be the main characters haha
The waitress is so pretty omg! And the manager looks like an actor in a drama!
The manager and Nana can be the poster staff for Yakun.
Genuine Ya Kun Use Aunty and Uncle and speak Hokkien.
The manager and staff are so eye candy, it's not authentic leh lol! Anyway, the kaya toast is really popular everywhere. Even Koreans will buy them bottles home when they visit here. Ya Kun managed to bring Singapore to these countries are amazing.

Ghib San the way you ate the yakun toast made me crave yakun even though I'm a Singaporean 😀
Nana honestly looks really cute and even the name is also cute 😊
holy, the staffs there are insanely good looking.
The manager is just wow LOL
Damn the Japanese soft-boiled egg looks way better than what we get here...
Agreed, the egg yolk looked much bigger too.
Eggs from Japan, yumm
Because japanese eggs are premium eggs
The egg was definitely one part that looks better, it looked much more rich
Don't have auntie and uncle to call out the order but feels surreal seeing Yakun being packed at lunch time in Japan! Now I am also craving Yakun 🤪
Don't have the LAI
So comforting to see the Japanese eating our ya kun and loving it! Always hear tourists raving about how they love Yakun so this really shows it 😊Also loving how your wife is joining in the videos as well with her inputs! Looking forward to hearing more from Mrs Ojisan 😊

I would love to see a video of you and your MIL in Tokyo once covid restrictions are lifted.
I can alr imagine her excitement!
That will be so cool!
Hi Ghib-San, I like that your shirt blend in so well with Ya Kun. Love your video. 😍❤️
“The waitress is very pretty”
It’s a trap bro. Just say “oh is it? Never noticed”
Underrated comment HAHAHAHAHH
Wow! Thanks for letting us know there's Yakun in Tokyo.
Love the expression of Ghib San when he bit into the kaya toast… that sense of familiarity and comfort is second to none… 😂 thank you for promoting our local brand! 👍
I am really blown away by the price for a bottle of kaya...now I think I will appreciate that Ya Kun in Singapore is so much affordable.
Nana and Manager-kun can become Ya Kun ambassador haha. Ghib and his wife can become international Ya Kun ambassador xD
This gotta be one of the best video from Ghib san! Totally enjoyed it!
Noticed this about Japan too! The Starbucks baristas and restaurant workers are generally really good-looking LoL
Nana's pride and passion for Ya Kun ...
I felt it.
one day I would also want to visit Nana !
Also that other customer also voiced out something prevalent in being more authenticated version of local food.
but to balance it to suit local palette is always the issue.
At least we know what to expect now.
so its all good.
but I always preferred chicken rice to plain rice for curry too. so that will be on my list.
Always a pleasure to visit your channel and explore something wonderful. Thanks!
If Nana work in Singapore, i will visit her everyday 🤩😘😁
I really enjoy this episode of Yakun 🎉 I am so happy that Japanese people queue up at the store too 🎉 yeah 🥚 🥚 🍞 ☕️ thank you for featuring this again 🙏🙏🙏
東京にもヤクンあるんですね‼️知りませんでした。チキンライスやラクサも食べられるなんて…これは絶対行きます👍カヤジャム食べて懐かしさで泣けるかもしれません😭教えてくれてありがとうございます✨とてもうれしいです🌷
Yes that manager is good looking. The hair is soooo anime ;)
Loved it Ghib San
0:06 tbh, i'll pay that price for kopi if I'm living in Japan haha. it's like finding treasure, way more valuable than gourmet coffee.

This video reminds me that my jar of Kaya is almost done. If anyone from Singapore is going here in Toronto, please bring me some.😅
It touches my heart (surely many of us Singaporeans too) that you are showing our food in Japan. You are one of us indeed.

日本にヤクンが有った事に驚きました。カヤトーストと海南チキンライス食べに行って、シンガポールの味思い出しに行きます
I bet they have the most handsome manager and cute staff (Nana) 😂 .. . Can never find in Singapore haha
So cool to see Yakun and local style kopi teh in Japan. Also, Nana is a cutie 😋
my son and i enjoyed this video!
that "teh-c la" at 1:54 was SO ON POINT. really impressed!
Favorite thing about the Shinjuku outlet is not the affordable chicken rice but the fact that they don't charge for extra chili :D
いつも楽しく拝見しています！ 私もカヤトースト大好きで、新宿のヤクンには毎月行ってます。確かにバターの量が少ないですが、開店当初はシンガポールと同じくらいだったので、だんだん日本人の好みの量に合わせていったのかもしれません（私は多くて冷えてるバター希望です）。
東京のあらゆるところでラクサを食べてみましたが、意外にも再現率が高いのはスーパーマーケットの成城石井のデリのラクサです。ココナツ風味は抑えめですが、コクがあります。
Happy to see you enjoy them !!!!
agree with your wife … Japan Ya Kun got young good looking staff.. the guy also look not bad mah not just the girl
seriously only auntie and uncle in sg yakun.. is quite amazing how young pple work in the tokyo branch.
disagree. I go to many branches of sg yakun, not all are auntie and uncle. There is quite a number of young people too.
@@cancanjaker1620 the young ones are mostly Malaysians
@@Jelloc ya majority the youngsters are Malaysian.
@@cancanjaker1620 There are no young locals working there. Even local student part-timers don’t want to work in hot environment.

I watched this video last night and this morning I decided to go and eat at Ya Kun( in Singapore) for the first time in years lol
たまに撮影した霞が関のお店にカヤトーストとチキンライスを食べに行きます。私もヤクンでチキンライスとかラクサがあって最初は「えー！」って驚いた人ですｗ
シンガポール旅行で食べたカヤトーストが美味しかったので、ぜひ今度行ってみようと思います。
紹介していただいてありがとうございます。
料金もお得なのでぜひー！
シンガポール本場の味そのままかと思ってたら、日本人向けになってるんですね‼️
それはそれで食べてみたい😊
There’s even Singapore Bak ku teh form soba in Tokyo 😁 it taste really good as well

The prices are actually ok given the weak yen now. If SG has mains like laksa and chicken rice I think would be around the same price here in ya kun.

Never knew about this outlet there in Japan. Better note it the next time I visit.
I enjoyed watching this 😂 glad that the Japanese enjoy Singapore food 😄

omg the egg looks sooo much better
The egg already look's so much better in comparison it really is no competition haha
