Ya Kun Kaya Toast (Thomson Plaza) — Restaurant in Singapore

Much better than the one which was the Yakun Family Cafe. The tastes of coffee and the toast are consistent and the servers are more friendly compared to the other cafe. It is a good welcome. Competition is good even with the same brand. My favourite was the Wangs but for the moment they are closed under renovation. The previous cafe in the present Yakun, I guess, could not survive, in this trade. There is a very efficient layout of the preparation area and the ways the work flow.

You see food crumbs on the floor (the aftermath of a toddler's meal time), used dishes at the side. I return my tray after eating but there is no proper place for it. I had to leave it on the clean tables.. I also saw a trolley of stuff at the cafe... All these are tell tale signs of process improvement...
