I have always miss Indonesian food, especially on their street style. When I was there often few years back, there are a few things I will always eat, their sate, roti bakar and a few more. Guess what? Recently I found a place that sell one of my favorite savory originate from there known as Martabak Manis or Terang Bulan pancakes at Waroeng Oma.

Yap, you can say it is something similiar to our local market Ban Chang Kuih where you can find it in pasar malam or Pasar Pagi. The only big difference is the ingredient they use.

Operate by 2 young lads, one of the owner of The MBI Martabak Manis actually originated from Jawa Indonesia and to make it better, they operate this little stall in this restaurant that also sells authentic Indonesian food which I will be blogging next.

Pricing for the Martabak Manis is very reasonable as they are huge in size and the ingredient they added in is very generous. Martabak Manis comes in 2 version one which is Original – means the thicker version and Tipker means the thinner or you if you love crispy then go for Tipker.

All of this are prepare fresh upon order. It takes very fast for them to prepare one as, it takes a few minutes for them to get 1 piece ready for you.

My all time favourite order would be .. . . .  when the base is form till the side is crispy, then first layer they spread with butter .. .

This is my order, Original Martabak Manis Special @ RM 10. Rich in ingredient and very aromatic compare to our local stall. Just exactly like what they offer in streets of Indonesia. It might look sinful at first but after first bite, you will continue eating till its gone. Pretty addictive. Of course cant compare in price as its way too different. Cheeze that they use, taste nice and fragrant as event though they using Kraft and its imported all the way from Indonesia, as the owner find it our local one is more mild.

This portion I would say its pretty huge and best to share at least with 2 people.

 Next order is Original Cheeze with Milk @ RM 8.50

After getting our thick version then we hope onto their Tipker version which is done like paper thin and the pieces that they cut all crack . This is best to eat it while its hot and not advisable to make it take away as it turn soggy very fast. Unless you go something of the ingredient that doesnt have wet base like peanut and chocolate rice, it might last a bit longer.

Our next order is Tipker Pisang Special (Tipker Banana special) @ RM 11 filled with, chocolate rice, cheeze, condense milk, peanut and banana. The whole plate was gone in seconds and order another same portion again. It is so crispy and fragrant that make all of us hard to resist.

Then last order we go for our favourite style which is filled with corn and peanut only. Never disappoint as the way they do the skin is already good.

If you are hunting for nice/ authentic Indonesian snacks and food, this shop surely can cure your cravings and it has now falls to one of my highly recommended place to hunt for.

A stall that I have been eating since I was in high school that have never let me down till today. From their old stall till their new stall located at Super Tanker at Taman Lip Sin, Penang is one of the pancake stall that you must not miss or a place to visit. I have not been visiting this stall for very long time till my last trip back to Penang. Aki Pancake is  not and ordinary pancake consider  Chinese style (ban chang kueh, or apom pancake, or even dai kau min) which you can eat it every where, it is famous for its thick pancake base with special ingredient added in.

The stall had been taken care by this lovely couple which are very friendly yet polite to all their customer. This had created a bond and many of the regulars had return including my brother which is a big fan of this stall.

This is what I mean no ordinary pancake stall that serve with normal peanut and corn base. They do have raisins, with seafood, chocolate and many other more. If you are adventurous enough, do try out all their signature. It will just amaze you.

The ingredient he use are all the top quality that he could find to match on his signature item.

One of my all time favourite is ‘Turkey Ham, Cheeze with Tuna’ @ RM 5.50. You will be amaze what this piece of pancake can do to you. Heavy damage. You might feel it is weird that this pancake is done in this way, but trust me! After start having the first piece you will never stop eating the 2nd, 3rd pieces.

Always will order the traditional ones, ‘Lots of Peanut and Corn’ @ RM1.50

This is what I mean the damage of having the first piece and then many more to eat after that. They are very generous on the amount of ingredient added in. Every bite is mouthfull of ingredient. Damm! I am hungry now just by looking at this picture.

One of the best is not only on the ingredient, is the thickness of the dough or base of it is just perfect to accomodate the ingredient.

There are many more to try as I have tried 70% of their range before I start blogging and it was just most of the time I went to this stall without taking camera. Till now, I felt that its a real hidden gem in one of the residence area that MUST share with you food lover out there. It is a recommended stall by me.
