[Macau] Popular Street Snacks - Waffles and Banana Cake

Price: $
Cravingness: ★★★☆☆


We found a eggette street cart (called 龍眼圍雞蛋仔 in Chinese) when we were on our way to Ruins of St. Paul when we smelled a mouth drooling aroma from Patio das Flores Alley. Although the cart is not visible at all in the dark, the aroma seduces customers to walk into the street to savour their pancakes.This street cart is said to be pretty famous in selling Macau popular street snack - egg waffles/ eggettes, waffles and banana cakes, each selling at MOP9, which is not too bad of a deal.

Waffles

I always have difficulties in choosing between eggettes and waffles. I opt for waffles tonight because I crave for some evil and fatty condensed milk and peanut butter sauces! We asked for extra sauces for our waffles and we were asked to pay an additional MOP3 for that. We paid as we want our sauce dripping.

It might be the end of their night, so they pretty much have all their waffles and eggettes pre-made. Our waffles was served stone cold :( They didn't even reheat it a bit on the stove. I asked the lady why was my waffle cold, she gave me an awkward smile in return with no comments... Great!

Nonetheless the waffles was moist and eggy. The waffle check was the smaller ones so they held the sauces pretty well. The condensed milk and peanut butter were delicious and blended together very well. The saucing was generous as we paid for the extra cost.

Banana Cake

Banana cake is another Macau's popular street snack but I have never tried it before. It was made like a shape of banana and had a strong aroma and taste of it as well. There was absolutely no banana bites in the cake, so it was probably just an artificial flavouring? The banana cake was freshly made from the griddle and hence with a good texture. It was crispy on the outside and had a soft and moist inner.


It is harder to judge if this place is good as I had a cold waffle. But judging from the texture of the banana cake, I assume the waffle would not be better than Lee Keung Kee North Point Eggette or Mammy's Pancake.
