There are two pancake stalls in the vicinity, both within walking distance from each other. Both are very good.

The more popular one (Granny's Pancake) with a perpetual queue on weekends is located at the Kim San Leng (Tampines); Blk 138 Tampines St 11 #01-148 Singapore 521138, right outside the Tampines Round Mkt's wet market section. Costs slightly more too.

The thin, crispy pancake I bought from 137 Market Pancake, Stall #01-19, also sells the same pillowy kind of mi jiang kueh with typical fillings like peanut, red bean and grated coconut. Costs slightly less too ($2 for 3 mi jiang kueh). More variety of pancakes as well.

I have tried the mi jiang kueh from both stalls and IMHO, they are both (equally) good! Despite the lack of queue at 137 Market Pancake stall, I don't think they lose out to Granny's Pancake stall in any way.

Anyway, back to the thin, crispy peanut pancake I am reviewing today. Even when I was a kid, this type of pancake was hard to come by. I used to have it when I was in my teens; at Bendemeer Food Centre, but that particular stall has since closed down. Have not seen this type of pancake since.

This thin, crispy type of pancake I got today is a little different. The thin, crispy pancake is very subtly sweet. Instead of the typical crushed peanut + sugar mix/ filling that I am used to, this 'filling' is more like a peanut butter type of paste; it was spread very thinly on the inside of the flat pancake and has a peanut butter savoriness which contrasts nicely with the subtly sweet, flat pancake.

A delightful snack really worth trying!
