We think Tanglin Halt Original Peanut Pancake offers a unique, old-school take on min jiang kueh, distinct from the fluffier versions commonly found today.
The dough is noted for its chewy, almost nian gao or muah chee-like texture, which some reviewers found more appealing when cooled.
The peanut pancake is consistently praised as the standout, with freshly roasted and generously portioned peanuts, though it can be messy to eat.
Other fillings like red bean and black sesame also receive good marks, while the pandan green bean paste and yam paste are less consistently reviewed.
Operating hours are irregular, and the stall is run by an elderly couple, leading to concerns about its future.
We'd recommend visiting early on a weekday to avoid queues and experience the pancakes fresh.
While the unique texture isn't for everyone, those who appreciate a traditional, chewier pancake with generous, fragrant fillings will find this a worthwhile stop.
Best for those seeking a taste of nostalgia and a different pancake experience.

What customers say
Tanglin Halt Original Peanut Pancake is highly praised for its unique, chewy, old-school dough and generous, freshly roasted peanut filling, often considered the best traditional Min Jiang Kueh in Singapore, especially when eaten fresh.
While some appreciate the distinct sticky texture, others prefer a fluffier pancake and note the messiness of the peanut filling.
Operational challenges include inconsistent opening hours and long queues, with limited stock later in the day.

Run by an elderly couple. Their peanut pancakes is made with special yeast that makes it more chewy. We are so lucky to encounter them today. They open at such random timing!! 🤩
Finally open! Their hours don't seem to be accurate (unless they actually sold out by 9am when I visited on a Saturday previously...) Their dough is actually more like a nian gao/muah chee rather tha…
Best peanut pancake in Singapore when you eat it when it is freshly made. The peanut is fragrant and the pancake itself is chewy and full of flavor. Quite different from other pancake places
My all-time favourite! I love the old style dough instead of those who use baking flour. It’s thicker but there’s a certain particular texture and taste. And their peanuts are freshly roasted and grou…
