Dutch Pancake House


If you have no idea what the deal is, start HERE

Happy New Year! I took last week off, mostly because it was busy and mostly so I could wait until I went here: 

Pfanntastic Pannekoek Haus (Dutch crepe-style pancakes, both sweet and savoury, breakfast food) 
Lincoln Park Shopping Centre, 2439 54 Ave SW
Delivery Fee: N/A, Eat-in Price: $****

The Pfanntastic Pannekoek Haus is a tiny little hole in the wall just off of Crowchild Trail, in a strip mall that includes a pizza place and yoga teacher training. I'd had a bunch of people recommend I get there early, but I rolled up at 10 (they open at 8) and was able to get a table just fine. However, when we left there was a HUGE line almost out the door. So get there early! 
My pfanntastic roommate took me here and I'm so happy I finally got experience it. 

Let's get to the breakfast! 

Banana, Coconut and Chocolate sauce pannekoek: a large, Dutch-style crepe with banana, coconut and chocolate sauce.  $10.95

Look at that majesty
So Google tells me that the difference between Dutch and French crepes are the size, and boy howdy. When it came to the table I thought for sure I'd be able to have two but halfway through I realized it was going to be more than enough. The pannekoek itself is sweet but not too sweet, and from the looks of the menu, you can put pretty much ANYTHING on it or in it. My roomie let me try the bacon apple one and it was divine. I think I'm in love you guys; the Pannekoek Haus is my new favourite brunch spot. 

They know what I like
This place is amazing, and affordable. If you can't treat yourself to a massive crepe at a place that gives you free cookies, then what are you really living for? Not to mention the delightful decor and wonderful staff. I'm definitely dragging every friend I have to this welcoming Haus. 10/10! 

Happy Eating!

Portland Part I

If you're a bit lost, start  HERE Over the summer, I was supposed to do a lot of things. I was supposed to climb a mountain (yeah right), work on my writing (ditto), and go to a music festival. The music festival plan went 10 types of sideways, so instead I went to Portland for 4 days to eat my way through America's hipster capital. LET ME TELL YOU I did not want to come home. I may have cried a little upon liftoff. But before all the sadness and goodbyes, I managed to enjoy the city throughly. Rolling in on a balmy August Wednesday, the city welcomed me with open arms. The first thing I noticed about downtown Portland was that the transit system was way better than back home. (thanks Calgary) The second thing I noticed was the food carts.  In a handful of strategic spots downtown, Portland has given an entire city block over to various food carts. I'm talking tacos, shawarma, donair, kebobs, fried chicken, ramen, paleo BBQ, sushi, Cajun cuisine, donuts...

I have Instagram!

I FINALLY got a new account set up just for all of my food pics, dreams, aspi- and inspi-rations! Go follow me @tallblondehungryyyc ! Happy Eating! 

Hiatus
