Was scrolling around social media as usual when we found out about the new Six Beans by Old Airport Road Toast Hut which had recently opened its doors at Hub Synergy Point — the building had recently been seeing new tenants moving in after a long while of being under renovations; other F&B tenants which had found home in Hub Synergy a point includes 9SQ Coffee House & Bar, which is a gastrobar which used to operate from Hotel Innotel before its move to Dawson Place and shuttering thereafter. For those whom are wondering about the reference to Toast Hut for Six Beans by Old Airport Road Toast Hut; Six Beans by Old Airport Road Toast Hut is an establishment that is run by the same folks behind the Toast Hut stall that is located at Old Airport Road food centre — the opening of this new space by these folks can be said as a pretty iconic one. This is especially considering how this would be the very first time which Toast Hut is operating a standalone eatery by themselves. There are attempts made by the folks of Six Beans by Old Airport Road Toast Hut to make the space carry a minimalistic look with its large use of white and grey elements; that being said, the furnishings and fittings can be said as rather basic and is still rather reminiscent of what one will typically find in a mom-and-pop shop. Occupying quite a large shop unit, there are quite a good number of seats around for dine-in patrons with ample space to even walk around. Toast Hut at Old Airport Road Food Centre is an establishment that is well noted for their local breakfast offerings of toasts, Nanyang-style Kopi / Teh and soft-boiled eggs — this pretty much stays the same at Six Beans by Old Airport Road Toast Hut, though they do also offer a good variety of more substantial food choices for lunch such as Laksa, Curry Chicken Rice, Soba Bowl, Aglio Olio Bowl and Peanut Porridge as well.

We had went past Toast Hut at Old Airport Road Food Centre quite a number of times whenever we are dining or passing by the hawker centre and had always been keeping it in the back of our minds to give them a go some time. This, coupled with the fact about how we are pretty much into Kaya Butter Toast meant that it was pretty impossible for us to give their Kaya Butter Toast a go. Toast Hut serves up their toasts and sandwiches either ala-carte or by set — pretty much identical to what other similar establishments would typically offer in the menu as well; the price quoted for the sandwiches and toasts for ala-carte and as a set with a hot drink or as a set with a cold drink being all different, with the latter two also coming with soft-boiled eggs. We opted for the ala-carte version of the Kaya Toast, considering how we were not intending to get the soft-boiled eggs. Six Beans by Old Airport Road Toast Hut serves up their Kaya Butter Toast with brown bread slices, much akin to that which Ya Kun Kaya Toast serves; each serving portion coming with four slices of toast with Nyonya Kaya and butter in between. Prepared only upon order, we really liked how their Kaya Butter Toast was crisp as we took a bite into it; there is definitely a good ratio of Kaya and butter here considering how it comes with a thick slab of butter, yet carried ample sweetness and hint of Pandan fragrance from the coconut jam that gave it a good flavour and texture — one of the renditions of Kaya Butter Toast that we truly enjoyed in recent times. Aside from the Kaya Butter Toast, we also had their Laksa which came chock full of ingredients such as shredded chicken, beancurd puff, quail eggs and fish cake — the gravy being a good balance of rempah spices and coconut milk without being too rich or jelak. Kopi was on point as well; the roasty notes and bold body of Robusta beans being really evident without being overly sweetened. Prices of all lunch items are priced at $7.90, while the toasts with hot beverages are priced at $5.80 — a little steep but understandably so given its location. A spot which we can see ourselves returning for lunch on a weekday though!
