Minimalist vibes, profound pastries

#cityplaybook Golden Seed in Taipan feels like a straightforward, no-fuss café that gets the basics right. The interior is bright and simple, with clean wooden furniture and enough space between tables to feel comfortable. I had a latte, which was smooth, and while I didn’t try the full pastry range, the kouign-amann looked crisp and fresh from the counter. What I appreciated most was the relaxed pace—there was no pressure to rush, and the space stayed pleasantly quiet even during a steady stream of customers. It's the kind of place you’d drop by for a calm coffee break without any of the usual café fuss.
