Description: World famous buttermilk pancakes layered and topped with creamy vanilla sauce, then topped with more vanilla sauce and a drizzle of dulce de leche caramel sauce

For its limited-time offers, IHOP periodically launches riffs on its iconic pancakes, and this one takes on a Mexican accent. The chain’s buttermilk pancakes are layered and topped with creamy vanilla sauce, then crowned with more vanilla sauce and a drizzle of dulce de leche caramel sauce. By giving a familiar platform—pancakes—a global twist, this menu item invites trial. And with Mexican now a mainstream cuisine, dulce de leche and tres leches cake are no longer exotic.
