The pancake side you refer to is possibly Pan Bati, served in many Aruban restaurants.

"Pan Bati
Very popular side dish that goes very well with Seafood and other typical Aruban delicacies ...

To make Pan Bati:

Mix in a bowl:
2 cups flour
1 cup corn flour
2 tbs baking powder
pinch of salt
sugar to taste

Add:
1 egg
1 3/4 cup milk
vanilla to taste

Batter the mixture until it becomes smooth (approx. 25 min) . If it is not smooth enough add a little water gradually until it smoothens. Like pancakes, put the mixture on a greased pan and turn the pan bati upside down when the downside is brown or dry."
