A Mini(s) sweet affair

When was the last time you visited a restaurant solely being drawn to their pancakes? Feel free to take this read as a sign. Just take that break from the too many waffle places around Dhaka and try something different.

Pancakes are gaining the well deserved popularity as a breakfast/brunch item. With that in mind, restaurants are doing well to introduce fancy toppings and even savoury options on the side to turn heads. In 2024, Minis Dutch Pancakes entered the scene as they introduced a temptingly intriguing menu.

Last week, I finally gave in to the urge and ordered from them for a taste test.

Imagine soft, fluffy pancakes, that too with the goodness of nuts and chocolate-y powder showers. If you are not that into nuts or almonds, they have got you covered with the same option, minus the crunchy bits.

For me, they were a good contrast to, as the name itself suggests – the Nutella induced softness. The pancakes radiated strong homemade cake vibes, reminding me of the thousands of mug cakes I made while stuck in quarantine. But there was a faint, but firm eggy flavour as well that was downplaying the overall rich taste.
