This streetfood corner is in the older Huangpu District of Shanghai. In the fourth photo you can see the Pearl Tower far in the background. This carriage is an intense production line. The woman beats out dough and fills it with oyster sauce, ground chili oil, chives, then rolls and flattens it. The man takes the pancake and fries it for about 5 minutes on a garbage can lid, beneath which is a coal-fired oven. When the Pancakes are almost done he opens the oven and bakes the pancakes for another minute. This makes the outside of the pancakes crispy and smoky, then gooey, then when you hit the chives and oyster sauce its really juicy and savory. These pancakes are so good.
