The Craving: Pancakes
Are these two restaurants on your list of the best places in Beverly Hills to get flapjacks?
Weekends are the perfect time to enjoy a slow, late-morning breakfast with family and friends. So take it easy and make it sweet with a stack of buttery, syrupy pancakes that you didn't have to cook or clean up after. Patch wanted to find the best spot in town to get some flapjacks, and it was a toss-up. Read on for the results.
Kate Mantilini Restaurant
Pancakes are often pigeon-holed into breakfast memories as big, fluffy and overly filling. But for those who want the taste without the heaviness, try Kate Mantilini's crepe-style buttermilk pancakes with blueberries and a light drizzling of syrup. You can savor all of the taste without the remorse. Customers are known to order the dish well past brunch.
Price: $6.50 for a stack of buttermilk pancakes, $3.50 more if you want fruit added.
Kate Mantilini, 9101 Wilshire Blvd.; 310-278-3699
The Farm of Beverly Hills
Sometimes a basic stack of pancakes can make for the ultimate breakfast. The Farm's three flapjacks with Vermont maple syrup and sweet butter are simple components that together have the power to satisfy your hotcake craving. This is another traditional breakfast food that you'll see customers dining on throughout the day.
Price: $6.45; $7.45 with bananas.
The Farm of Beverly Hills, 439 N. Beverly Dr. 310-273-5578
