Sweet Rex Review: Fluffy Souffle Pancakes At $2 Each At A Hawker Stall
Sweet Rex offers souffle pancakes at a hawker centre During my trip to Bangkok last year, my best friend and I came across a cafe that divested Instagrammable desserts, including soufflé pancakes.
However, being on a budget denied me the opportunity of trying those beautiful, fluffy pancakes. And since I came back, I’ve been searching high and low for affordable soufflé pancakes until I found Sweet Rex . Coming across these pancakes on the ‘gram, I assumed it came from a cafe.
So, when I found out these came from a hawker stall and cost just $4 per set, I knew I had to see and taste it for myself! Souffle Pancakes at Queenstown Food at Sweet Rex The fluffy Soufflé Pancakes ($4 for two pancakes) from SweeT.Rex are freshly made, and served with a sauce of your choice – chocolate, caramel or strawberry.
We ordered two portions, one with chocolate sauce and the other with caramel. As I set the pancakes on the table, my stomach grumbled while the buttery aroma whetted my appetite.
I loved the caramel sauce, but wished there was more of it to go along! 10 Cheap Hawker Desserts That Are IG-Worthy Including Coconut Ice-Cream And Bingsu Saddened by the fact that their Thai Milk Tea Pudding ($2) was not available, we settled for their Chocolate Pudding ($2) and Matcha Pudding ($2) instead. While I was ready to taste some good pudding, especially after those delicious soufflé pancakes, my excitement quickly turned into disappointment after I had a bite of their chocolate pudding. That being stated, if you are only looking to get one thing, stick to the soufflé pancakes!
The discovery of Sweet Rex’s Lemon Cheesecake ($3.80) was purely by chance. My eyes twinkled in happiness after my first spoonful of the “tofu” cake.
The cheese was creamy with a hint of tanginess that made it easy on the palate. While the base didn’t have the crunch that I like in my cheesecakes, it was a small rate to pay for such a tantalising cheese mix.
The ones at Sweet Rex will satisfy your cravings, and leave you wanting more. Ambience at Sweet Rex The only fixed first day days for Sweet Rex fall on the weekends.
We went down on a Tuesday and realised it was closed, despite having looked at their first day hours on their Facebook page. After a chat with the boss, we found out she threw open its doors this stall out of interest and only opens on weekdays when she has time on her hands. Otherwise, you can come down on weekends for some family time over a plate of soufflé pancakes and cheesecakes.
The verdict If you can’t tell by my smile already, Sweet Rex sure stole my heart with their affordable treats! With all the delicious food in Mei Ling Food Centre, I would definitely return with friends and family for a meal and round it off by introducing them to Sweet Rex’s soufflé pancakes.
