"These pancakes are widely reviewed as being some of the best pancakes around. According to The Original Pancake House’s website they have been around in Portland OR since 1953 & there are now over 100 restaurants in 25 states. An authentic ethnic recipe that cannot be found elsewhere, even @ IHOP. Although a cast-iron skillet works best for this recipe, but you can use a non-stick skillet if it's deep enough to allow the pancake to "fluff" w/o causing overflow. While the recipe says it makes "1 large pancake", IMO this large pancake will be 2 servings, esp if served w/other breakfast items. (Time does not include the batter resting time) Enjoy!""
