Hawker stall grilling old-school Chinese pancakes, apom, and crispy kueh with that golden, slightly charred edge.

Uncle Lim Traditional Pancakes is a hawker stall that keeps the tradition of Chinese-style pancakes and apom alive, grilling each one to order on a cast-iron plate until the edges turn golden and slightly charred. The pancakes come with sweet fillings like peanuts, red bean, and coconut, as well as savoury options for those who prefer a non-sweet snack.

The batter is poured thin, yielding a pancake that is crispy at the edges and soft in the centre, the ideal texture for these old-school treats. The apom berkuah, a small, bowl-shaped pancake served with a sweet coconut dipping sauce, is a nostalgic favourite that is increasingly hard to find in modern hawker centres. Uncle Lim also offers crispy kueh and other traditional snacks that rotate depending on the day.

The stall operates with a quiet, steady rhythm, each pancake receiving individual attention. For a taste of traditional Chinese snack culture that is slowly disappearing, Uncle Lim Traditional Pancakes is worth seeking out. It is old-school griddle work, one pancake at a time.
