"Pancakes are not something you eat in a rush. They're for taking a moment to slow down, to be present. There's a ritual to them - watching butter melt into the crevices, drizzling on generous amounts of syrup, maple or otherwise. They pair well with other things on the menu - bacon, eggs, hashbrowns - but are also just as satisfying on their own. Pancakes, always comforting and filling, are the ideal breakfast food (and great at lunch and dinner too)."
"They also happen to be endlessly customizable: whether you prefer a base of buttermilk or ricotta, or buckwheat or cornmeal, fillings like blueberries or bananas, and toppings like maple syrup, butter or whipped cream. There's a pancake out there for everyone. Even if you're not a sweets-in-the-morning person - you still want a bite. There are few things more enjoyable than at least one stack for the table."
Pancakes invite a leisurely meal and a ritual of watching butter melt and syrup fill the crevices. They pair nicely with bacon, eggs and hashbrowns but remain satisfying on their own. Pancakes work for breakfast, lunch or dinner and accommodate many preferences through bases like buttermilk, ricotta, buckwheat or cornmeal, fillings such as blueberries or bananas, and toppings like maple syrup, butter or whipped cream. Options range from classic buttermilk stacks with crispy edges to diner pancakes rippling with fresh fruit and to pancakes made from flavor-packed grains like rye and oatmeal. Eleven standout spots showcase these varieties across Los Angeles.
