Ya Kun Kaya Toast (Chinese: 亚坤加椰面包) is a Singapore-based chain of mass-market, retro-ambience cafes selling toast products (notably kaya toast), soft-boiled eggs and coffee. Founded by Loi Ah Koon in 1944, Ya Kun remained a small family-run stall for decades, but have expanded rapidly since Loi's youngest son headed the business in 1999. They have over fifty outlets, mostly franchised, across six countries, and are a Singaporean cultural icon, known for their traditional brand identity and conservative, people-centric corporate culture.

Famous quotes containing the word toast:
“Maud Muller looked and sighed: “Ah me!
That I the Judge’s bride might be!

And praise and toast me at his wine.

My brother should sail a painted boat.”
