Juragan Apam BalikCertified
halalTaste buds yearning to look beyond nuts and corn, then make your way to this stretched blue hut, which is constantly spotted with patrons making a beeline. How about adding pulut hitam and chocolate onto the bed of peanuts and corns? It’s an ambrosial marriage of texture and taste, perching atop the spongy pancake hedged with crispy notes. A little greasy and best-devoured piping hot, it’s impossible to stop with one or two, armload dozens to accompany you on the couch.

Mr Yaw Min Chiang Kueh @ Nam Wee Coffee ShopCertified
halalHouses in a quaint coffee shop, this little stall has never seen a dip in quality and fame since it started in the year 2005. Mr. Yaw, an amiable mid-aged man who has more than 40 years of experience up his sleeves has been churning out Apam Baliks that are second to none. What grabs your attention is the way the batter is whipped back and forth between two mugs before taking a dive into the sizzling griddles, this is dough tarik before your eyes. The regular versions are worthy yet the ultra-thin version takes the cake, plus it’s only made upon request. The crispy pancake scatters and crackles with a bountiful punch of peanuts, creamy corn and glaze of margarine.
