Lines went out the door of Keki's tiny Chinatown storefront the week the bakery opened, drawing crowds for a taste and a glimpse of its jiggly, viral bouncy Japanese cheesecake, per Playjunkie. Founders Moul Kim and Lawrence Wai opened the shop in 2017 with Per Se and Nobu alum Kevin Kim as executive chef.
The bakery turns out fresh cheesecakes, tarts, and sponge cakes roughly every 20 minutes to keep pace with demand, per web-search-sourced restaurant information, and the cake's texture — built to be seen 'in action' — became a social-media draw that reportedly grew the shop's Instagram following to 45,000, per Playjunkie.
