How did the MCO delay impact the development of Dou Dou Bake?

Question

Accepted Answer

The MCO delay gave Dou Dou Bake unusually long time for landscaping and preparation.

The long movement control order delay meant Dou Dou Bake had far more time than usual to let its greenery mature and complete the space. Renovations had started in December, but the team could not restart until recently, so the project ended up with “more than we bargained for” in terms of preparation time.
Landscaping usually starts months before opening, but that rarely happens
Wei Ming said landscaping teams ideally come in three months before a shop opens so the plants have time to grow. In practice, they usually get only a week or two, which makes mature greenery difficult to achieve.
Dou Dou Bake got extra time because of the movement control order
For Dou Dou Bake, the delay from the long MCO created an unusual gap in the schedule. Wei Ming said this gave the team more time than expected to work on the plants and the outdoor space.
Renovations began in December but were paused
The renovation work had already started in December. It could not restart until recently, which extended the development timeline well beyond the normal preparation window.
The longer timeline affected the finished look of the bakery
The extra months helped shape the raw, natural interior and the garden outside the bakery. Wei Ming said the space could now feature plants, gravel, fruit trees such as guava and longan, and a small herb garden with dill, giving the bakery a more developed visual finish.
