Gram is a popular franchise, known for its fluffy pancakes. They were a huge craze back in 2017, with queues going around the block at their original store in Harajuku, Tokyo (LINK).
The reason for their popularity? Exclusivity.

To get a seat, visitors had to queue up at certain times (08:00, 11:30, 14:00) to get a “ticket” so they could come back a few hours later for their actual pancake. We fell for this tourist hype and it was honestly shit. We had to block out an entire day in Japan for a pancake…

The pancake was very wobbly when it arrived at our table. We spent 5 minutes taking photos/videos and it was so fun to poke at it.
The batter was very fluffy and bland. The maple syrup sweetened everything and the ice creamed added a refreshing coldness to the bite. After the first layer, it became sickening to finish so we recommend getting one to share.
Ok, thanks for reading this quick post 😄 We’ve queued up 3 times for this pancake so we thought we’d add it to our bucket list. Bye.
