The verdict
BolehJason finds this Korean sweet pancake spot underwhelming for the price: the walnut version earns a 7, but the cheese is flavourless and the Nutella masks its problems. The RM10 original scores 5.2 and feels overpriced — only worth grabbing if you live nearby.
Highlights
- Price: RM15 for the walnut cheese pancake and RM10 for the original, which he calls mahal
- Taste: Crispy outside, soft inside with a Honey Stars walnut vibe, but the cheese has a weird off taste
- Other: They add a lot of sauce, making it a very messy eat his girlfriend dislikes

This Korean sweet pancake cost me 15 ringgit, it's called Hot Dog Bros in Bandar Seri, Bermaisuri. They told me their walnut filling is brand new so I had to get that and the cheese. From what my caveman brain knows, hot dog is a Korean street snack that usually has walnuts or nuts in general as fillings but it could be anything la. Starting it with the walnut, in between crunchy and bready, it's giving me Honey Stars vibe. Matt, does it wow you? It's not a wow dish, if I live nearby and I can't buy here I'll be like, hey girlfriend wanna grab some. Walnut is a good combo of 7, I'm a sucker for Nutella even if it costs me a decent lunch. 15 ringgit for this, mahal ngam ampuih! Healthy and sweet. Look at the cheese. The cheese got this weird off taste. There's no flavour to it, a lot of it is the overpowering of the Nutella. Pancake itself is a good texture, crispy outside, soft inside but the cheese doesn't come through. One thing really good is they add a lot of sauce up and my girlfriend doesn't like it, first it's gonna be a very messy, messy, messy eat. Almond portion generous but muscle angin la. Feels like I'm paying 5 ringgit extra to mask the bad cheese. Six, we've got their Hot Dog Original for 10 ringgit. The cheese is a bit watery, it doesn't feel like cheese. It's like chewing gum that you chew on for too long. And it doesn't pull. Now I realise something, the Nutella mask out a lot of the problems that I have with this. The cheese really got no flavour. It tastes like potato somehow and the texture is like over chewed chewing gum. For 10 bucks I think this is overpriced. Meat 5.2.
