Original House of Pancake



About twice a year, we drive up to see Dad, either for brithday/Father's Day/we still remember you type visits. Or Xmas/Chinese New Year/My Birthday/I'm getting a present type visit. We only make it up to Dallas about twice a year. It's a shame too because we've decided that Dallas has better chains than we do in Houston. I mean, think about it. Steak n' Shake, Taco Bueno, and now In and Out burger. Yes, that's our junk food heaven.

The other thing they have that we don't. The Original Pancake House, it's OPH not IHOP. And boy talk about difference in qualities. Their speciality, which has been featured on TV many times is the Dutch Baby. I've never had one because from what I understand it's big enough to share with at least 4-6 people. So, needless to say, haven't had that kind of opportunity.

Either way, it is a great diner type place. And weekend mornings are sure to have a line for a table. I got the peach crepe, wen the easy route. The lovely thing about it is that instead of the French style, you can tell there are eggs on the outside too. They wrapped the peaches inside the crepes, and powdered sugar up a storm, and top more fruit on top of it. It was delish! The juice from the fruit blend w/ sugar and the crepe so well that you don't need any extra syrup to top off the flavor.
