I have seen this duo selling hotcakes but only last Sunday did I get to try their hotcakes. A slice costs five pesos, and is quite good for the price.

They could this in a fabricated crepe pan around 12 inches long that sits directly on the stove. The cook pours about half a cup of batter to the pan and spreads it evenly. Then grates cheese on the cake and drizzles some sugar. Once the open side is all than, he flips it in half and the hotcake is done. It takes him less than two minutes to make one. Another person slices the hotcake halves into four.

I was interested in the crepe pan and asked the cook where he got.

I want to have one made, being a crepe fanatic myself. Imagine, he got it from Indonesia where he used to work. He actually got the idea to bring it to GenSan from Indonesia and sell hotcakes!

That looks yummy for 5pesos! The amount of cheese and sugar is quite generous. I love crepes! Especially those made by the Frenchman at the Legaspi Sunday Market! I love waffles, too!
