german treat

November 13, 2010

The German Village Coffee Shop is a wonderful local gem. It’s this tiny little hole-in-the-wall breakfast joint that serves up a good ol’ fashioned American breakfast for extremely reasonable prices. My pancakes (pictured above) were fluffy and light with lots of fresh, juicy blueberries. The hash browns (below) were cooked to perfection, and were surprisingly […]

24 hour treat

September 6, 2010

Buckeye Donuts, open 24 hours a day, is perhaps the best place in town to get these round treats. Always light and flavorful, the donuts at Buckeye Donuts are cheap and tasty.

One of my favorite dishes at Tasi is their buttermilk pancakes, which are at least six inches […]

These thin pancakes from Paula’s Pancake House in Solvang, California, are served up “Danish style.” The generous dusting of powdered sugar and the fresh fruit on the side make them a yummy way to start the day. Don’t be fooled by the deceivingly small serving (only two pancakes per order) — these flapjacks are about […]
