Fans of Penang’s Apong Guan, you can now get their iconic fluffy ‘apom’ in Pandan Indah

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 9 — Apong Guan, a Penang staple for over 50 years, has moved its iconic food truck to Kuala Lumpur. The 79-year-old owner, Uan Cheng Guan, now passes the family business to his son Alan. Alan, who previously worked in Kuala Lumpur, aims to expand their unique "apom" pancakes' reach. The fluffy coconut milk pancakes, topped with bananas and sweet corn, are now available in three flavors: original, peanut butter, and pandan.

Alan uses a modern electric griddle, unlike his father's gas griddle, for a more consistent product. While the food truck initially had few customers, it now sits quietly in front of Hong Leong Bank Berhad in Pandan Indah. The pancakes can be ordered via FoodPanda, Grab Food, and ShopeeFood, with the food truck located opposite the bank.
