Fuwa Fuwa pancake chain opening third Calgary location next week

Aug 31 2023, 7:00 pm

Fuwa Fuwa, a popular Japanese pancake restaurant, is opening its new location in Calgary next week.

This new outpost is coming soon to Chinook Plaza in Calgary. It’ll be the third location in Calgary, with the others in the University District and in Kensington.

There are already some amazing places to eat at CF Chinook Centre, and this looks like it’ll be one of the best.

The new location will also be the first in Canada to offer Fuwa Fuwa’s coffee subscription pass, which is a one-year coffee pass. Guests can only get this on the grand opening weekend of this new outpost, and it means getting up to 365 coffees for only $89.

As if that wasn’t enough for the exciting opening, the first 50 guests will receive a free drink, a tote bag, and plenty of other swag.

“Calgarians have shown us how much they enjoy our unique pancakes as a tasty, artisanal treat,” said Benson Lau, the Business Development Director of Fuwa Fuwa Pancakes, in a media release.

“This new south Calgary cafe gives Calgarians another convenient location to try our delicious souffle pancakes.”

“Our stores in western Canada have all been incredibly well-received and Calgarians will be even more excited this time to try our new line of coffees, perfect on the side of our signature dessert pancakes,” Lau added.

This chain is known for unbelievably soft and airy pancakes, with toppings that include fresh fruit, decadent chocolate, house-made cream cheeses, and more.

The name means “fluffy fluffy” in Japanese, and the pancakes are some of the fluffiest you’ll ever try.

These pancakes are made by whipping egg whites to soft peaks, which is how they get their souffle-like quality. Also, like a souffle, the pancakes are cooked slowly at a low temperature.

It’s a delicate process that combines soufflé and traditional pancake cooking techniques, creating a one-of-a-kind item that Calgary will lose it over.

The Fuwa Fuwa Signature is served with strawberries, blueberries, and bananas, but there are also creations like tiramisu, crème brûlée, and matcha and red bean pancakes.

Pancakes are the way to go here, but there are also extravagant waffle dishes, macarons, rolls, crepes, cookies, and even burnt-top cheesecake.
