Full description

Reviews

Sadly, the pancakes were far too sweet. The batter itself was already sweet and they were drenched in maple syrup. They would benefit from more toppings and a much better balance of sweetness. The yogurt and granola were even more disappointing. The granola tasted stale, with a musty flavor, and we couldn’t finish…
