I,love poached eggs but have never been successful at making them myself. And I’ve rarely had a decent poached egg in a restaurant - they usually come out with the yolk cooked too much. So I make or get a sunny side up egg gooey and then flip it onto a piece of toast. Works great and restaurants can do a nice gooey one. My mom apparently never could make them either but she did make soft boiled eggs which I remember scooping out of the shell - yum!!! I think the word “gooey” is a Pennsylvania Dutch word as I’m originally from York, PA - land of dippy eggs.
