Part 1 of my The Hainan Story bread haul is finally here! Got this on @pickupp.sg , use my code 《BREADINOSAUR》 for $5 off a $14 min spend 😘 this bun comes with a thin crust of coffee polo on top of a soft bread filled with nutella.

Imma be honest, this is overpriced. The size is similar to that of those little 6pc conjoined rolls you get at neighbourhood bakeries. Basically, it is tinyyyyy for $1.90. I really adore the softness of the bread and the nutella filling but there's not much about it that's special enough to warrant a $1.90 price tag, especially since Nutella is a common ingredient that you could easily find in any supermarket to DIY your own nutella roll.

The unique part of this bun should have been the crispy coffee cookie on top but unfortunately, that fell short too. The coffee crust is painfully thin and due to how meagre the amount was, I could barely even taste the coffee aroma :(

This bun looked and sounded super delicious so unfortunately it was a let down. Given how obsessed I am with nutella and coffee buns, I think this bread could be drastically improved if the coffee crust were made thicker like a polo bun, because imagine how bomb it would be if it was like a coffee polo with nutella filling holy WOWZ. Also pls be bigger because I swear I could have devoured this in a single bite 😭

⭐ Rating: 7.6/10 tiny coffee beans
🤑 worth the price: no
🦖 would I buy again: if it were revamped, yes, but atm, no
💍 would I marry: no

My family has been searching around for curry chicken in a bun for quite awhile. We finally found it at The Hainan Story Bakery!
We 💗 the curry which was thick, creamy and subtle spicy accompanied with chock-full of boneless chicken chunks and soft potatoes. Dipping the pieces of bread in the bowl of curry was great fun too! 🤩
However, I was cautious not to chip my teeth when biting the bread which had a pretty hard, crispy outer crust!
