Order Pancakes delivery and takeaway online in Holloway

One meal that never falls flat is, you guessed, the Pancake. The famous Pancake (or if you want to sound a fancy, a Crêpe) is a flat cake, thin and round, prepared from a starch-based batter that may contain Plain Flour, Eggs & Milk and cooked on a piping-hot surface like a frying pan or griddle, usually in oil or butter. Archaeological evidence suggests that pancakes were probably the earliest and most widely distributed cereal-based food scoffed in prehistoric societies. (And you can have them delivered through one of the newest forms of technology – the Just Eat app.) Pancakes may be served at any time of the day (although in the US & Canada, they’re typically scoffed at breakfast) with a variety of toppings or fillings including Jam, Fruit, Syrup, Chocolate Sprinkles, or even meat like Bacon or Ham. Pancakes actually serve a very similar function to the French Crêpe or the Belgian Waffle. C’est bon. (Especially whisking their way towards you on a Just East delivery bike.)

The shape of the Pancake varies across the world. In Britain, pancakes often resemble a Crêpe. The Great British Pancake is typically eaten as a sweet dessert, with the toppings such as a variety of Jams, Fruit, Honey, Icing Sugar, Whipped Cream, Chocolate Sauce or (and we’ve all done it) a delicate drizzle of Golden Syrup (don’t forget to lick the spoon). They can also be wrapped around Savoury Fillings as a main course (don’t forget to use the Just Eat app). On Shrove Tuesday, it’s a custom to eat pancakes with the Classic Traditional Favourite Topping of an easy-peasy-squeeze of Lemon or Orange Juice and a sprinkling of Sugar. (On any day, it’s easy peasy to have them flying your way like an edible discus on a Just Eat delivery bike.)
