Beitou Fried Egg Scallion Pancake: A Popular Treat Loved by Locals and Foreigners

When you think of Beitou, most people probably think of Beitou Hot Springs. However, this time we're not introducing the hot springs, but rather a super popular street food that always has a line. That's right, it's the fried egg scallion pancake that looks like a balloon in the picture.

Before this, the fried egg scallion pancake had been operating as a food truck next to Beitou Fuxing Park for six years. Finally, on August 28, 2021, the store opened. The business hours are from 11:30 AM every day. Let's take a look at the legendary street food! But don't worry about waiting too long, because three pancakes can be fried in one pot.

The dough is made fresh daily by the owner, and fried to order, ensuring the freshness and deliciousness of the food.

The dough starts to expand like a balloon with the heat of the oil pan. Even waiting by the side isn't boring, because it's truly a visual feast. Eggs are then cracked into the gaps between the pancakes and fried together.

After frying until golden brown on both sides, the pancake is placed on top of the egg that is also being fried in the pan, and then it can be taken out of the pot!

You don't have to worry about how to eat it, because after being taken out of the pot, the pancake will slowly return to the familiar shape of a scallion pancake as the temperature drops.

There are a total of six flavors. You can choose from the basic original flavor plus five other flavors.

The special sauce enhances the flavor.

We shared the original flavor and the German sausage flavor.

The portion is quite large. Especially the German sausage, the size is also very generous. But of course, the main character is the pancake. The golden outer layer is crispy, and the inside is very chewy. One bite will really surprise you. The texture is really different from ordinary scallion pancakes. And then with the special sauce, it's no wonder it's a street food with a line. It completely subverts the taste buds. A must-try food when visiting Beitou.
