Kakey Chang
Arianna Cunha/Daily Journal
Owner and operator Kakey Chang came from Taiwan in 2005 with a dream to open her own business. Having an aunt that owned a breakfast restaurant in San Jose, Kakey had the opportunity to learn all aspects of this business. Ready to take the breakfast industry head on, Kakey opened My Breakfast House in 2010.
Since 2010, this woman, minority-owned small business, has been San Carlos’ best kept secret. The casual dining experience combined with friendly and personable service makes you feel right at home. If you’ve been here before, you might even know Angie on a first name basis, one of their original waitresses. Others know it as a great place to bring family, friends or even come alone to enjoy a cup of coffee with free refills.
On the menu you will find a range of traditional American favorites, as well as options paying homage to other cultures and their various adaptations of traditional dishes. On a gluten free or vegetarian diet? They also have something for you too.
One customer favorite is the waffles, being a light, creamy treat with a perfectly golden crisped crust. Add fresh banana, blueberry or strawberry to really top it off. Another popular choice, and Kakey’s favorite, is the French toast.
On a weekend morning you may find a waiting list but hang tight because they work hard and fast to get you seated. Throughout the pandemic, they have been open for takeout and outdoor dining, showing their resilience and passion to serve all of their customer favorites. Show your love to My Breakfast House by enjoying their food in your mouth and then spreading it by word of mouth. Open every day 7 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Located at 1137 Laurel St., San Carlos, CA 94070. Phone: (650) 598-7600.
We have gone to My Breakfast House multiple times and loved the food every time. It's old-fashioned style omelets, bacon, toast, just the way we like it. The owner and staff are super duper friendly too with smiles on their faces and working hard to service the customers. The restaurant is deservedly popular but not to the point where you can't get seated and enjoy the ambiance. We are excited to see these guys getting well deserved coverage. If we had one wish, we would love if My Breakfast House would stay open later than 1:30 on Saturdays and Sundays. Why not keep things open until 2:30 to allow us late arrivals to enjoy the amazing food! Some of us get started a little later on the weekends and this would give us enough time to eat there!
