About Miammy Soufflé Pancake

Miammy Soufflé Pancake is a specialist cafe at 50 Greville Rd, Pinehill, on Auckland's North Shore, holding 4.9 stars from seven Google reviews and keeping its news on an Instagram page in place of a website. Soufflé pancakes are a different beast from the flat cafe standard: egg whites whipped to a meringue, folded through a light batter, then cooked covered over gentle heat so the stack rises tall and jiggly. Made properly they take time, often fifteen to twenty minutes, so the habit at good cafes is to order first and settle in. They're also at their best within minutes of leaving the pan; left sitting, the rise settles and the wobble goes. The mark of a well-made one is a pale, even top and a plate that trembles when it's set down. For that treat, Pinehill has its own spot on Greville Rd.
