[Photo] Jakarta: Yummy Childhood Street Snack
If you’re in Jakarta, especially around ‘Pasar Baru’ area, you’ll most likely see quite a few of this.
A ‘push cart’, selling this ‘hat looking’ pancake thingy.
(If anyone knows the ‘real name’ of this, please let me know?)
The seller would park his cart somewhere by the road side, take out his ‘pancake mix’, and start ‘cooking’. Yes, everything was done out in the open, along the street, where hundreds and thousands of cars and motorbikes zoom by every single day =)
Yes yes. Dirt and pollution is everywhere. The frying fan looks dirty and the seller perhaps should’ve bought a new pan years ago too! =)
(Better not see the kitchen and how the food is prepared, they say =)
Anyway, I love these! Since I was little.
I just bought some the other day.
I ate four of it. Anya ate one.
Cost me Rp1000 a piece.
And that’s like … 15 cents each!
Yummm!

Leonny,

here, they only have two …. normal one (whitish colour), and pandan (greenish colour)
If you go Penang, do try and be amazed by the fillings;)
