KoKo Coffee
KoKo Coffee was founded by Daud Kyarizov, an immigrant from Turkmenistan, who opened the first location in Boston in 2022 after noticing during the pandemic that coffee ordered through delivery apps rarely matched the quality of a drink made fresh in front of a customer at a real café counter. The company built a menu drawing on Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian influences, distinguishing it from typical American coffee shop fare, and it has grown into a small multi-location Boston chain alongside a mobile coffee cart division and corporate café service offerings. KoKo Coffee's expansion into Boston's North Station area, adding to existing locations along the waterfront and in South Boston, reflected the company's steady growth from a single pandemic-era café concept into a recognized local specialty coffee brand. KoKo Coffee's combination of Kyarizov's immigrant founding story and its distinctive Central Asian and Mediterranean-influenced menu has made it one of the more distinctive coffee brands named Koko in the country.

Koko Head Cafe
Koko Head Cafe opened in Honolulu's Kaimuki neighborhood in March 2014, led by chef and partner Lee Anne Wong, a "Top Chef" alumna, and it built its reputation around gourmet twists on classic brunch fare rather than a straightforward diner-style breakfast menu. The restaurant's signature Cornflake French Toast, along with dishes like kimchi bacon cheddar scones and a Breakfast Bibimbap, reflect the kitchen's specific approach of running island-style, locally sourced ingredients through familiar American brunch formats. Koko Head Cafe has reportedly served well over a million guests since opening and consistently ranks among the highest-rated restaurants in Honolulu on major review platforms, and the restaurant has since expanded its hours to include a dedicated dinner service on weekends. Koko Head Cafe's combination of Lee Anne Wong's "Top Chef" pedigree and its inventive, ingredient-driven approach to brunch has made it one of the most consistently celebrated restaurants in Honolulu.
