Food on Wheels; Pancake, the classic!
Yes, the pancake is the absolute classic in my opinion when it comes down to food on wheels in Thailand. They come on a variety of wheels as well, motorised but many times also hand pushed, like this one on Koh Tao.
This little pancake outlet is run by a very nice and friendly Bangla Deshi bloke who lives on Koh Tao since 9 years and he makes a nice little show out of his job and is pleasant and easy to talk to as well. Each day he wheels his cart away and back in place again!
Part of his show is the throwing and smashing around bit of the dough, to be followed by a pizza dough like swirling around during which the dough becomes rounder and bigger. Fun to watch!
The wait whilst the pancake sizzles in the pan, the hardest part of the whole event!
The finished product, my fave is a banana pancake with cinnamon. The person I was with had a egg, cheese, onion and tuna pancake and both were just delicious! A great snack in-between.Not to forget, my kids love them!
What an invention, the food on wheels. I'm loving it, that's for sure!
