Scallion Basil Blossom — Papa d’Amour’s Take on the Classic Scallion Pancake
The scallion pancake is a staple found in many Taiwanese and Chinese street stalls, where vendors often fluff this scallion bread on the griddle just before serving to give it that extra flakiness and aeration.
Papa d’Amour’s Scallion Basil Blossom reimagines this iconic snack with flaky laminated brioche layers that can be peeled away to reveal warm scallion and Thai basil pesto at the center, finished with toasted sesame seeds. Our Scallion Basil Blossom is a Papa d’Amour signature, available exclusively in-store at our Greenwich Village shop.

A Street-Food Favorite, Reminagined
Chef Dominique was inspired by the traditional scallion pancake, creating fresh scallion buns filled with a Thai basil pesto center, surrounded by flaky laminated brioche pastry – the perfect combination of Taiwanese flavors with classic French technique. If you’re craving something savory and comforting, this is definitely worth the trip.
