This cup and saucer set is used to serve hot beverages such as coffee and tea in Toast Box outlets in Singapore. Established in 2005, Toast Box is a Singaporean contemporary coffee chain known for its recreation of traditional Nanyang coffee and bread toast that have its roots in early 20th-century Singapore, which saw a proliferation of such coffee shops run by Hainanese immigrants. Apart from the iconic coffee and toast, Toast Box’s menu includes other local dishes such as laksa and mee siam. With more than 70 outlets in Singapore, Toast Box has also set up shop overseas, including Hong Kong, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur.
