Pancakes

Each year on March 1st, IHOP celebrates National Pancake Month with free flapjacks all day long. Other restaurants salute the pancake with fresh toppings, decadent fillings and a few savory twists. It’s tough to resist these pillowy treats—especially as Mardi Gras season comes to a close.
