Otto Takeaway by Otto Company
Helllo there,
This time I will share with my dearest reader on the hot selling donuts in town.
CHAPTER 1: Donuts & Me
My first visit to this cafe was greeted by a sign by their door saying “DONUTS ARE SOLD OUT”. I left the cafe with a disappointment. I first encountered this place as it has been trending in my insta post and what makes me more curious was a comment by one of their customer: “Brunei’s Krispy Kreme (KK)”. Driving myself to the cafe for the first time with a high hope of bringing some donuts home was left with a :(
CHAPTER 2: The Strategy
Planning my next strategy to drop by the cafe close to the time when they are ready to serve the freshly baked donuts result to another disappointment. I decided to call the cafe and ask about when is the suitable time to drop by the shop so I can get hold myself the hot selling precious donuts. I was advised that to go to the shop and join the queue at lest 15-20 minutes prior to their serving time :0
CHAPTER 3: All ready for Otto’s
I was told that the first batch of donuts is served at 10am hence, I made my way waking up early on a Friday; all dressed up. It was a long queue of traffic entering the junction to enter the building’s area. It was pretty nerve wrecking as I was afraid that I will not be able to get hold of it again today. I was getting closer to the door and guess what?? Otto’s closed on a Friday. (P/s: Please reminded to check the opening hours of your destination). I guess I was not lucky enough to meet this hot selling donuts. The trending posts keeps on appearing.
CHAPTER 4: Otto & Me
It was 6pm on a Tuesday, unplanned visit to Otto with no high hope at all, basically just to try my luck for donuts and coffee to end my hectic day. I walked closer to the red door and slowly took a peek of the sold out sign.. Finally... it was not there and I entered through the red door with a smile that I can’t not really hide my happiness. In my heart I was mumbling “Finally we get to greet each other”. To my surprise there were no queue at all, I am at the very front and first on the line.. eager to place my order of the sweet donuts which were placed next to the counter. It looks so shiny with different colours ;)
I was greeted by the cashier and the donuts boy upon entering. I observed on how to place the order. I saw “Please take your queue number” standee and asked for my queue number. The donuts boy reply, “it’s okay, you are the first on the line now and you might be bringing all these lovelies with you”. All smile approaching the cashier to place my order.
My most recommended one is the original glazed donuts. My very honest review, this is way better than KK Donuts that I have been indulging and obsessing all this time. Compare to KK, Otto’s original glazed is nicely covered with the sugar glaze which are not too thick. The sweetness of the thin sugar glaze complement the thickness of the donuts texture. Though Otto’s is still sweet but it is not as sweet as KK.
The other recommended flavour is the classic flavour of strawberry glazed donuts. This strawberry glazed is accompanied by the classic rainbow sprinkles to make it looks nice and attractive for a little girl. However, the taste of it is not as sweet as it looks.
They also serve another oreo chocolate donuts. Glazed with a thin chocolate sugar glazing enough to cover the donuts and sprinkle with oreo crumbs. The sweetness of the glazing and sprinkles did not overkill the flavour of the donuts.
Cinnamon sprinkle donut is also a must try, A unique flavouring usually used in cinnamon rolls, surprisingly can be used in donuts as well. Not much different in term of flavouring but obviously in term of texture, there is different as donuts have airy texture as compare to rolls. Hence, this flavour is a good try of taste which is familiar to our taste buds but enjoying it with different texture is a new thing :)
Last but not least, all these sweet treats are best served with a hot cup of coffee. For this time, I’ve chosen Latte (no sugar) with a hint of coco powder. The slight bitterness of coffee combined with milk, best suit the sweetness of the donuts.
Otto Takeaway has recently renovated their place, hopefully they now can serve enough donuts for all their customers. Last but not least, all the best for your future endeavors Otto Takeaway.
To my dear reader, all the best for your donuts hunting, remember all the tips to get hold of your 🍩 & ☕
