After a hiatus, I'm finally back bloggin about food. The reason for the break is not so much a lack of material but rather I was simply too busy eating to write! That's the one of the much-needed comforts to live in Surabaya, and nothing is more satisfying that a food that resembles what you know back home yet with a twist to whet your curiosity.

One of them is the Terang Bulan - pancake with fillings inside. More commonly known as 'bin chang kueh' back home in S'pore, the dough is much thicker, double the depth. We ordered the keju (or cheese) and the staff slapped on a very generous layer and topped them with grated shreds.

Get your fix @ Kharisma (sells both terang bulan and martabak - like our murtabak but much crispier), a roadside warung stall @ Jalan Kertajaya VIII Raya No. 51C, Surabaya.
