Mr Appam, Maxwell Food Centre

Mr Appam, pandan coconut appam

I categorized this both under Indian and Vietnamese since appam is Indian but the proprietress of the stall who is also the cook, is Vietnamese. So Vietnamese Indian this one? There's a tale behind how she ended up with Mr Appam (#01-99 Maxwell Food Centre, 1 Kadayanallur Street) but it will not be told here. We tried their pandan coconut (green one) and princess appam (below). 

Mr Appam, princess appam

I liked that we were getting a good sour from the fermented rice flour for the pandan coconut appam but I'm not getting any of that pandan flavour. Heh! Princess appam which didn't have any of the sour was sprinkled with palm sugar - a little different from how it's done at Heavens which provided brown sugar/grated coconut on the side making the sweet component optional. Not bad tasting appams here, wouldn't mind coming back another time but the wait can be grating since it's all made to order.
