ABBEY: We queued a couple of times at Gram Pancake and on our third try we were in. There are only 30 soufflé pancakes at each time slots. A serving of three 4-cm pancake on top of each other costs SGD 17.90. That doesn’t include any drink and every person that will enter the restaurant should have an item to order (speaking of profit per customer. Haha).
They are wobbly (or jiggly) and fluffy but nothing special about the taste. The smell is like the fancy streetfood-pancake we had in Philippines. Maybe its with the water they use for steaming the pancakes. (Recycled?)
Also in my observation, the staffs seem to give that “take photos for IG, finish your food fast, and leave” vibes. They might just want to serve all the customers who want to get in. No warmth or welcoming feel except for that one staff or maybe she’s the manager. Not going there for second time :)

Do you know that they have a limited number of serving? Do you know that you need to queue for almost 40mins? Do you know that you can’t order a drink or another item from menu aside of thei pancakes? Do you know that thei pancakes cost a $17.90? Now you know! Haha!
After waiting for another 15mins at the table, the pancakes were served. Indeed, it is jiggly and yummy for the eyes. BUT! It emits a stench. Arrggh. I do not know why but it reminds me of a smell of dirty hot towel. Argghhh... There nothing unusual of the taste. But the texture is creamy and spongy as I expected.
The young man who is taking the orders outside the store seems so arrogant and surprisingly they told our next table that they can’t stay if they already finished their food. Whoah!
Instagrammable but not worth the HYPE, TIME and MONEY.
