Check out my other Singapore Videos:
that time i got a MISTAKE UPGRADE to Singapore Airlines BUSINESS CLASS:
• MISTAKE UPGRADE: Scoot...
Staying at a SINGAPORE CAPSULE HOTEL! (cheap accomodation in singapore)
• Staying In A SINGAPORE...
i went to a Ya Kun restaurant when i was in Singapore and tired for the first time, a traditional breakfast in Singapore. What i had was Kaya toast with soft boiled eggs and a good ol cup of (kopi) coffee. The toast had a thin slab of butter and a thick spread of kaya jam, it was served with a couple very soft boiled eggs , (which you're supposed to add white pepper and soy sauce to taste) and then you just dunk the kaya toast into the warm runny eggs.
Did i like it? Watch and find out ;)
If you're interested in how this originated - In the past many Hainanese chinese worked on british ships as cooks. When they settled in Singapore & Malaysaia, they adapted the food they served abroad these ships and introduced it into the communities they’d settled in., and replaced western jams with local coconut jams.

Do you add soy sauce to your eggs?
Yes! Soy sauce + pepper! 😄
Soft boiled eggs, always! :D and pepper ofc
did i add enough?!
Janice Fung looks alright.
@@outerhealthplus8880 oh really! this was the first time i'd added soy sauce to soft boiled eggs
AHH kaya toast!!!! I can only imagine how good it is in singapore 🤤
Thankyou for this video! We finally made it to Ya Kun Kaya Toast in VivoCity today and finally got to try this! OMG it’s so good!
I've been planning my trip to SG and your vlogs has been a great inspiration. You're funny!!! Safe travels.
Haha glad you like the videos, enjoy SG!
kaya toast, half boiled egg & coffee/teh tarik are like staple singaporean brekkie, totally yummmy!!
yesssss! so good! it had that same ''homey'' feeling i get when i eat congee or french toast or spam & instant noodles ;)
Hey Janice. Stumbled across your channel. Love it and now subscribed. Watched your initial vlog on reasons you quit your job and following your dreams. How inspirational. I’m at a similar cross road in life but too scared to take the leap. Keep up you’re great vids
Hey! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a message ☺️
Whatever decision you make, I hope you make one that feels right for you. Good luck!
The name speaks for itself Ya Kun Toast sound right!!!
Ohhhh our Singapore signature breakfast. Even my 2 kids love it.
Ya Kun is the bomb! Kaya toast is a staple breakfast for us whenever we visit SG. Thanks for the history lesson Janice! 😀
100%! wish they had something like that in sydney too...
Love kaya toast!
I want to try this noww!!
Yea do it!
Coffee and tea with condensed milk is amazing!
Omg yes the soft boiled egg dipped w that toast... Its wonderful
the creamy yolk just melds everything together mmmmm
Yummmm! Always love to have a kaya toast with kopi-c or teh-c whenever we visit Singapore. Doesn’t matter the time, breakfast, lunch, brunch, tea time, dessert after dinner, it’s always perfect 👌🏻
yeah absolutely! kaya toast is 100% the type of food that can be eaten at anytime of the day :D
Welcome to Singapore!
That sweet and savory combo with the eggs
i wish they had this in sydney :( i mean i could try and make it but i'd never be able to perfect the eggs
This is great that u tried it... am from Singapore 🇸🇬 welcome to my country
thank you so much!
Im going to SG next year, I will try this haha
even tho i live in singapore and its normal for me to eat this as breakfast at times, u really made me crave for this 🥵🤩😳
LOL 1:13 relatable 😂😂😂
bahahhahaa i knew i wasnt alone
I've visited the oldest outlet in Singapore hope you can check it out. It's nice you got to manage to try the locals favorite breakfast. I'd like that you googled how to eat it. heheh!
Thank you for sharing! I am glad you enjoyed your Singaporean breakfast. I would try the kaya toast, but I have a phobia of runny eggs. When I was in Singapore over five years ago, I had breakfast of freshly made roti dipped in a thin curry with potatoes at a small hole-in-the-wall next to my hotel where I saw from my window a constant stream of taxi drivers stop in to eat.
that's when you know you've found a gem! if the locals love it, you've got a winner
This is call dark soya sauce! You did right!! 😁😁😁
Hehe yay! 🤗
I've tried the egg...and I've tried the kaya toast but I've never dipped the toast in the egg before...btw I watched the fiverr ad for you.. get that youtube $$$ Janice!
bahahahahhaa thanks man! i appreciate it ;)
There is this place that serves butter in your coffee, I know it sounds kinda gross but you just got to try it. I love it, it apparently was like a staple in the 70s Singapore to have this style of coffee and there is only very few coffee shops left in Singapore that serves it in this style. Hope you are able to try it next time! Cheers~
Finally someone ate it right.
My dad adds the coffee to the egg leftovers and drink it like that 🤷🏽♀️
I don’t normally dip my toast because I’d usually dip it in the tea.. i should try dipping the toast in the eggs.
Wow that looks interesting! When I think of egg + soy sauce, i think of eating it with rice 😂
omg! so true! i was saying i've never added soy sauce to eggs before you just reminded me that i totally do. it's what i make when i dont feel like cooking.. just panfry an egg and then place it onto rice and add soy sauce... it's the best.
The coffee in SG is different from the ones you get from Starbucks, etc .... local coffee is traditionally roasted with sugar and margarine, so it has a most fragrant and robust taste .... local coffee doesn't use fresh milk, but like u rightly pointed out, condensed milk and/or evaporated milk and sugar
Also btw what are your other travel plans for the rest of the year??
i dont have anything else planned at them moment... still deciding where to go :P
That ya kun kaya is really unique. Breakfast is good in Singapore.... kinda has hints of a British full English bkfst with a south east asian twist!!
yeah totally! so many other breakfast options i didnt get to try though.. will just have to go back again i guess :P
The first time I tried kaya toast, I didn't know how to eat it. Unlike you, I hadn't googled beforehand, so I tried making a sandwich with the soft boiled egg, which, needless to say, didn't work out too well! :) I googled it after I got back to my hotel however, and had it the following day. It's great!
Haha thanks for sharing! The egg must’ve slipped right through!
♥️
Actually, they didn't cut off the crust haha. The bread is just like that, they just simply toast them (not in bread toaster tho) . The bread are made daily, so they are fresh. It's my all time favourite (and most Singaporean's favourite)!!!
“I’m so hungry, as usual” - relatable
haha love it! always ready to eat
Hungry as usual....
Wow, she is so cute. :)
yeahh kaya toast is a MUST when visiting Singapore..we tried to make it ourselves but the taste is far from good haha..
ahaha ayy at least you gave it a good go!
I make it myself and it taste good but does require a bit of effort to stand st the stove constantly storing it. I'm malaysian living in Sydney but the only thing is our kaya toast in Malaysia and Singapore generally uses a specific type of white toast which I don't make nor can find it here
Half boiled eggs are my favourite daily breakfast!
yeah they are delish! i can just never get the timing / temp of the water right to have it a perfect half boiled egg...
@@JaniceFung there's actually a yellow/clear plastic thingy we use to make perfect half boiled eggs! 😄
@@JaniceFung Put 2 Eggs in bowl, pour boiling water and cover. Around 5-6 mins. Depending on size of egg. White pepper and dark soya sauce. Don't put too much soy cos it will be very salty. A little drip first, not enough add later.
Nice I also like thay
woooow!
Yoooo didn't know it's pronounced a koon 😂👍 so buzzy that we both were here at similar times and made similar videos too hahaha. So tasty right!
i know right! are you guys still in singapore or in vietnam right now?
@@JaniceFung we're in Vietnam now :)
👍💜💜💜💜
👍🏻
Everyone can have their own way to eat the breakfast, there is no fixed how to eat it, I don't dip the toast bread to the soft boil eggs, after finished my toast bread, I will lift up the plate, and DRINK the soft boil eggs. Yummy 😋
Suggest to you, next time you come again, may try the similar breakfast at our local coffee shop or hawker centre, is cheaper then the famous shop.
Thanks Joyce! Let me know if you have any fav local cafes ☺️
Good Morning from Las Vegas....Its an early 5:15am here, getting ready for the school day and its 80F (28C) already and the forecast is 107F (42C) today....I am a bit picky....Eggs are scrambled and ketchup is added, since ketchup is one of the four main food groups..the Army ruined me for anything but a well done egg....
night time here in sydney... that sounds really hot..... it's freezing here in sydney. the wind is CHILLING.
i actually love ketchup. love it with eggs and even with steak actually.
what are the other 3 main food groups...???
@@JaniceFung LOL.....Lasagna, Bourbon, and Pad Kee Mao.....Forecast for Thursday is about 44C....but it is getting toward the end of the Summer and will be heading back down to the 90's and 80's in about 3-4 weeks.
You put too much of soya sauce 😁😁
whooopsies
Next time you should try 喜园（YY KAFEI Dian) near bugis. They served good Hainanese kaya butter bun n Kopi. Better than ya Kun.
Address 37 beach road #01-01
Thank you so much Calvin! 🙏
I’m most def coming back to Singapore and that place will be on my to visit list ☺️
Im so curious how they get the egg so watery but stilll cooked....hmmmm
hmmm soft boil it and then pull it outta the hot water just in time?
pour boiling hot water into a small pot with the eggs inside. the eggs should be fully immersed n wait about 6 to 8 minutes depending on size of egg
Kaya bring sweetness to life. However, over consumption may somehow damage your tooth.
sweetness to life indeed!
ahh i like this video, btw may i know the adress? thanks
There are lots of outlets of Ya Kun Kaya Toast across the island in malls. But this particular outlet which is really huge (occupying a whole shophouse) is at: 345 Beach Rd, Singapore (199568)

Wow I didn't know that you have to dip the Kaya toast into the eggs. I always ate them separately ^^"
i'm pretty sure you can do either :) tastes great either way!
Ya Kun but I can only see it as Yakult, welp!
bahahah i love Yakult. i used to be so sad i was only allowed one a day
Some might prefer to dip the toast into the coffee
How much did you pay for it?
$5 SGD
Too much soya sauce..u can also dip the toast into the coffee.
Ha ha... Too much soya sauce, too salty. Usually just half a tea spoon and about 2 to 3 shakes of pepper. Actually myself and many others don't dip bread in egg, we drink it. Yes we drink the egg. Hope u try again my way next time
Bahaha whoops. Thanks Noel, I’ll try your method next time
How good is Kaya Toast? :D I actually preferred Toast Box though. Did you get to try that?
So good! No I didn’t get a chance to try toast box... next time!
Ya Kun is my favourite out of the kaya toast chains in Singapore
You add too much of soya source to the egg .
oh whoooops... i'll know for next time thanks!
Next country to visit- Malaysia
Too much black sauce is unhealthy lah.
I eat mine clean, not adding anything.
I accidentally added too much lol
Too much soy sauce = salty
lol true that
My dog eats better food
