Craving Ya Kun Kaya Toast after returning from Singapore, we
went to PappaRich at their opening time of 10:30 a.m. to try their more
breakfast-oriented items (note: their menu is all-day).
We instantly noticed the new interior design. The place
feels a lot more sleek and high-end than the last time we came.
The ordering system here is a godsend. You look through the
well-illustrated menu, write down your table number and the code and how many of
each item you want on a sheet then push the button to call for someone who will
take it away and put your order in the system. No more language barrier, nervous
trainee or awkward conversation! They will come back to give you your receipt,
so remember to take this to the counter to pay after your meal.
The drinks came out first. I ordered the Iced Kopi (#MF20,
$4.20). It had a strong coffee flavour and was nice and creamy.

J had the Hot Teh Tarik (#MF15, $3.90). A pleasantly fragrant
milk tea.

Then came the food. We ordered the Hainan Toasted Bread with
Butter & Kaya (#B02, $4.90). The bread was really thick and fluffy and came
sliced in half, making it easy to share (not that you’d want to). The kaya
flavour didn’t come through as strongly as I would have liked but it was still
quite nice.

We also had the Hainan Toasted Bread with Condensed Milk
(#B04, $4.90). It was as good as it sounds. The same bread covered in rich,
sweet and calorie-packed condensed milk. I personally recommend this over
the butter & kaya.

Verdict: Although popular for their savoury dishes,
PappaRich also offers very attractive breakfast options.
