BATAM Mitra Raya Most Popular Apam Balik Only 30¢ Each! Batam Cheapest & Crispie

Having visited the Mitra Raya area several times, I can confidently say that their Apam Balik stands out from the typical versions you’ll find elsewhere. What makes it truly unique is its extraordinary crispness and very thin texture, making each bite light yet satisfyingly crunchy. Priced at only 30 cents each, it’s incredibly affordable for both locals and travelers looking for a quick, delicious snack without breaking the bank. The vendor operates daily from early morning till early afternoon, which means you can grab this treat as a breakfast option or a midday snack while exploring Batam Kota. The location is easy to find—JL Mitra Raya No. 62, TlK. Tering—which is a bustling spot filled with other street food vendors, but this Apam Balik shop is undoubtedly the highlight. I appreciated how fresh the Apam Balik tasted, with a perfect balance of sweetness from the pancake batter and the crispy shell. Unlike thicker and chewier varieties, this one has been thinned to perfection, which enhances the crunch and offers a different texture experience that I found addictive. Buying three pieces for under $1 also made it a great value, allowing me to enjoy them with friends without worrying about cost. If you’re planning a trip to Batam or just exploring local Indonesian street foods, make sure not to miss this hidden gem. It’s a must-try for foodies who love discovering budget-friendly snacks that don’t compromise on flavor or quality. Plus, enjoying these freshly made Apam Balik in a lively street market setting adds to the authentic local experience. Whether you say "好吃" (delicious) in Chinese or "enak" in Indonesian, this crispy Apam Balik will win you over!
