Limited Edition Strawberry SoufflĂ© Pancakes with Ice Cream, Whipped Cream and Strawberry Sauce [$20++] Todayâs my first time trying these pretty Japanese soufflĂ© pancakes! I shared these with my mum đ Decided to pay a visit after reading reviews of various new soufflĂ© pancake places in Singapore and seeing Riz Labo being voted as the best in town.
- Riz Labo Kitchen hails from Omotesando in Tokyo, Japan, some Japanese people work there so you know itâs pretty legit.
- Itâs located on level 4 within Japan Food Town at Wisma Atria, near the escalators. Itâs taken over what was previously Bar Nippon, so the ambience is very bar-like.
- The pancakes are made fresh when you order, so we waited about 20 min for the pancakes.
- The menu mentioned that the soufflĂ© pancakes are made with egg whites, and Japanese organic, gluten-free rice flour which was promising! We did find that the pancakes were pretty eggy in terms of taste, colour and smell so there are probably lots of egg yolks involved đ€·đ»ââïž To me, the pancakes kind of taste like chiffon cake meets pancakes.
- We thought the whipped cream would have been better if it was fresh, cold + real not artificial whipped cream. The vanilla ice cream (not strawberry as stated in the menu) went really well with the pancakes.
- Personally, I thought the price of the pancakes was pretty steep for the ingredients involved and also it wasnât that satisfying. Perhaps itâs the labour costs involved in making the pancakes that explains the price đ€·đ»ââïž
- PS. They donât serve tap water. Recommend ordering the $3 refillable English tea if you donât have any water.
