A Happy Pancake is introducing a new Houji Tiramisu Pancake for a limited time at just one of its shops in Hong Kong, offering a taste of a menu item that's normally only available at its Kyoto Shop in Japan. Inspired by the popularity of Houji tea, A Happy Pancake created a special sauce featuring the flavors of Houji—which sets itself apart from traditional kinds of tea by being steamed then roasted, which removes bitterness and creates a rich, smoky taste. The Houji Tiramisu Pancakes are served with a silky cheese and the thick tea-flavored sauce on the side.
Across China and Japan, A Happy Pancake is known for its extra-soft, souffle-like pancakes that are freshly made to order without baking powder or additives.
