But if you go to a cafe and order pancakes how do you know what you'll get!
A simply unacceptable gamble in my mind! Imagine looking forward to a normal pancake and getting a rubbery American one popped infront of you.
Do Canadians not call the Scandinavian crepe style Swedish pancakes? That’s the common term in the US regardless of size and fold.
I have heard of it maybe at a distinct place, but not common.
Alot of things also passed off as crepe but not...
Not alot of standards lop
This is not a common term in the US.
Yes it is. You’ll find it on breakfast menus in every part of the country, if they make them. There are variations though. What do you call them?
Well I'm 40 and lived all over the country and I've never heard it a single time. You sure you don't live in an alternate timeline? Also just to make sure I'm not crazy I looked at iHop's online menu and it's... just pancakes. Never heard anyone call a pancake anything other than a pancake.
Ah, yeah you're thinking of regular pancakes. In this thread, we're talking about crepes made in one of the Scandinavian styles. I haven't heard of IHOP selling those unless it's a special menu item.
Edit: I googled IHOP Swedish pancakes and they apparently had them for awhile and discontinued them a couple years ago.
Thin, thick, size of a plate, sand dollar size, size of your hands... just all called simply pancakes.
I find the thick ones not good.
Theres a chain of big pancakes size of plate restaurants called dedutch pannekoek house, or just dedutch.
