I couldn't resist the Elvis pancakes, with fake bacon, peanut butter, maple syrup, banana and ice cream. Crazy right? But keep in mind that they don't open til 12 so it's really lunch! Excuse the blurry phone pics!
The fake bacon went surprisingly well with the sweet pancakes, I suspect because they fried it with maple syrup. I loved this, but it did make me feel quite sick at the end. That might have been all of the sugar or all of the gluten or both. I'm glad I got to try it though. The pancake texture was awesome, I really need to perfect gluten free pancakes!
Toby tried the big vegan breakfast, which included scrambled tofu, fake bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms and spinach and some toast. The tofu was quite garlicky but we enjoyed it. Size wise though it was disappointing, it wasn't really big at all.
Troy got the breakfast parma which comes with scrambled tofu, bacon, tomato and chips and salad on the side. He enjoyed it and allowed us to pinch some of his chips.

I wanted to get this post done today because I want to start the new year with this blog being mostly gluten free. We will no longer post gluteny recipes or dishes we make at home since our home will thankfully be g/f. So the only gluteny dishes featured will be the occasional ones Toby samples when we go out.
That Elvis pancake is kind of calling my name. I get that it sounds weird, but Americans have a tradition of combining sweets & breakfast meats, so it's my heritage, a little bit, right?
ReplyDeleteThe Elvis pancake doesn't sound strange *at all* to me, but that's probably because I add peanut butter to everything ;) I saw on twitter that you've been making some smoothies - I just bought a new blender myself, and peanut butter goes rather well in banana smoothies too :D
ReplyDeleteI have to go and try those pancakes, they look great. I've been on a bit of a pancake thing lately :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's so good and so bad at the same time. You should all do it.
