With a pancake that takes 10 times as long to make as it does to eat, the line of customers waiting to try this delicacy stretches out the door.

      Unfortunately, just like the guy above said, you can't own recipes. But the first shop that served these Souffle Pancakes were insanely popular and the owner is incredibly successful already. Just imagine your recipe used all over the world though, just the thought of that is beautiful isnt it.

    • @pimaxuma
      @pimaxuma 6 місяців тому +1

      It's not Japanese. Soufflé pancakes were invented in Hawaii, by chef Nathan Tran in 2009, Cream Pot restaurant in Waikiki. Japanese chefs stole his creation. Just FYI.

    • @DisingenuousComment
      @DisingenuousComment 6 місяців тому

      ​@@pimaxuma That actually is very interesting so I did some more research on it. The only sources I could find was a Honolulu magazine and the instagram page of the restaurant. As much as I want to believe him because I hate to discredit people who deserve it, the only evidential proof he had are pictures of his own souffle pancakes which are taken way after the popularity boom. So I did more research in Japanese, and I found countless blogs that praised the Chef for his menu. So it's not like Japan discredits him and lies about how the Pancakes were invented in Japan. But you also can't deny the fact that it only spread worldwide because of the shop that opened in Japan. If I were Nathan, I would be happy my menu is known all over the world, instead of making hateful comments such as "they sent spies over to steal my recipe", which is very unlikable lol. But yea, cool story.

    Watching her eating those pancakes knowing that I will probably never be able to eat them phisically hurts. Why am I even watching this video?
