My husband the pancake champion! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Schmoopie · 01-18-2010, 05:54 AM

I had to give this its own thread! Friday night my husband and I went to IHOP for dinner and he ordered the all-you-can-eat pancakes. He kept ordering refills and when he left the table the waitress comes up to me and says that if he orders three more stacks (I think there were two on each), he'll have the store record. He comes back to the table and I told him what she said. So he did, and it was so hilarious. The manager and staff just couldn't believe that he had broken the pancake record (of 18 pancakes). They paid for his dinner and our waitress took his picture and said she was going to put it on the bulletin board!!
When they asked how he did it, I told them that we watch a lot of "Man vs. Food". I half expected them to do a press conference afterward!

We went back in there tonight and he ordered the same thing. He was under his record but the same manager was in there. When she saw us, she announced to everyone on our side of the restaurant that the "champion" was here. It was too funny! And then the waitress told us that her boyfriend came in last night and tried to beat the record but didn't even come close!

That's a fun story... your husband should enter an eating contest and win a prize!

Did he eat the pancakes without the butter and syrup?

I can put away some pancakes if I have a bottle of sugar-free syrup but absolutely no butter.
