Madison|Jian Bing Guozhi (Chinese Savory Crepe) 🥚🥙
Just got back to Madison after the Lunar New Year—and cravings hit hard! 😋 Wanted to grab SGD for lunch, but my roommate said it’d be too slow… so we went to Mai Tun Snack instead! Ordered their Jian Bing—a classic Chinese street food crepe! You can choose between crispy wonton cracker or fried dough stick—I went with the crispy version 🥠 It comes with sausage, egg, sweet bean sauce, scallions, and cilantro 🌿 The batter is made from mung bean flour (Northern Chinese style—apparently Southern versions use regular wheat flour? 🤔) They cook it on a large electric griddle… but joked that the power isn’t strong enough so it’s slowwww ⚡😅 (If I had a big enough pan, I’d try making this at home! 🍳) Price: $11.99 — a bit pricey, but it hit the spot for a light lunch! ✅ #UWMadison #JianBing #Madison #Foodie #ChineseStreetFood #MidwestBites 🥢
