<\/a>\nLet\u2019s Makan (\u201cmakan\u201d = \u201ceat\u201d in Malay), a newcomer to Manhattan\u2019s Chinatown at 64A Bayard St, proves the adage that good things come in small packages. Every foodie I know is buzzing about this little snack shop\u2019s Apam Balik, a Malaysian cr\u00eape (available in traditional, pandan, ube, or chocolate), folded around a filling (your choice of butter, ube, Nutella, pumpkin, taro, or kaya), with toppings like peanuts, corn, toasted coconut flakes, cornflakes, or seasonal fruit. And if the decision sounds overwhelming, they have some tried and true suggestions for you like \u201cAuntie\u2019s Favorite\u201d.<\/p>\n
1) Open wide! Here\u2019s a peek inside my pandan apam balik with kaya (a jam made from coconut, eggs, and sugar), peanuts, and corn.
\n2) …in progress…
\n3) …lined up and ready to rock.<\/p>\n
Sweet and so delicious! Speaking with the enterprising owner, Michelle Lam, I was impressed with how passionate they are about bringing unique and authentic Malaysian flavors here; I\u2019ll return soon to try their savory dishes too, like Pan Mee, Curry Chicken Rice, Nasi Lemak, and Flat Rice Noodle with a variety of delectable additions \u2013 more decisions! I highly recommend that you check out Let\u2019s Makan as soon as you can; bring your appetite and don\u2019t forget your sweet tooth!
