New York City: Soufflé Pancakes at Fluffy Fluffy

New York City: Soufflé Pancakes at Fluffy Fluffy


Disclaimer: I was invited to visit Fluffy Fluffy, but as always, this post reflects my own experience and honest opinion.

The first time I tried soufflé pancakes was in Tokyo back in 2017. It was the hot new thing at the time, and I was convinced those jiggly clouds of pancake joy were about to take over both the US and Europe. But even though they’re still hugely popular in Asia, soufflé pancakes remain surprisingly under-the-radar in the rest of the world, which is a bit of a mystery considering how incredibly good they are.

Soufflé pancakes aren’t just a fancy version of American pancakes. Thanks to whipped egg whites, the texture is soft, airy, and almost foam-like—think edible clouds, but make it brunch. And yes, they taste just as good as they look.

So when I saw that Fluffy Fluffy had opened in New York last month, I was obviously very excited. Fluffy Fluffy is a chain that specializes in Japanese-style soufflé pancakes, just like the ones in Tokyo, and they’re doing a great job.

We asked the staff for their favorites, and there was general consensus that the Tiramisu Pancakes and the Blueberry Cheese Pancakes were the top picks. We ordered both, but quickly agreed that the Blueberry Cheese Pancakes were the clear winner. The blueberry sauce together with the cold ice cream, and those fluffy pancakes? Such a great combo, and yes, they taste exactly as good as they look in the photos.

Steve had a hazelnut espresso, which had a nice nutty flavor without being too sweet. I went for the Strawberry Latte, which honestly tasted more like a strawberry milkshake than a coffee drink (I’m not even sure it had any coffee in it), but it actually paired really well with the pancakes.

If you’re curious about soufflé pancakes and want to try the real deal in New York, Fluffy Fluffy is definitely worth a visit.
