Gooey Bakery + Café

I wasn’t expecting too much from this café at first, as I thought it was just another influencer spot — but it turned out to be such a pleasant surprise! What impressed me most was actually their savoury food, which was absolutely delicious and even better than many savoury restaurants I’ve tried. The katsu sandwich and crispy prawn bun were both full of flavour. With my Asian palate, I noticed the stir-fried veg tasted a bit like Cantonese-style sauce, which I really enjoyed. The katsu sandwich was perfectly balanced in flavour, and the prawn bun was juicy and thick — just a little salty, so make sure to have it with the bread in one bite. I was genuinely shocked (in a good way!) at the first bite — I’m sure you’ll feel the same. We didn’t try the cookie, so can’t comment on the sweet options. The Kinder donut was good, though not particularly special. We planned to try the Reuben sandwich but didn’t this time — it seemed popular, so check other reviews for that one. The only downside was the service — not sure if I’m happy with it, as there’s always a queue outside but the table turnover seemed quite slow. The online ordering system also felt a bit sluggish, which might have caused the queue. It made the experience a bit less pleasant despite the great food. All in all, I’ll definitely be coming back for the savoury dishes again soon!
