IHOP Country Griddle Cakes

Many many years ago I was working the overnight shift at IHOP for a little spare cash. I would always eat there during my shift and got to love lots of the foods. My favorite pancakes were the country griddle pancakes. I swear I could eat them every day! Well I stopped working there and […]
