The Big Apple Pancake at Bickfords

Do you have a Bickfords restaurant near you or is that just a New England thing? Maybe it's just a Massachusetts thing...I'm not sure. Bickfords used to be similar to the International House of Pancackes (or IHOP for those that like abbreviations), or a Friendlys type place, or a Waffle House for those that might be in southern states. Now Bickfords tries to pass themselves off as a fancier breakfast place...which is OK...the food is actually quite good if you're looking for something homestyle cooked. Anyway...Bickfords is known for the Big Apple Pancake...which is basically this huge fried dough looking thing covered with apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. When I say it's huge; it's huge. This is the BABY Apple Pancake:

I ordered the Big Apple Pancake this day, but the waitress thought it might be wise to tell me just how big the Big Apple Pancake might be and suggested the Baby Apple. I mean...look at it. This happened to me at another breakfast place as well when I wanted to order the 4 pancake stack...it was suggested that 2 might be enough. I should have listened. I didn't.

So the Baby Apple pancake was AWESOME by the way and everyone should try it if you haven't already. Are their restaurants near you that have this sort of specialty? Leave note of it in the comments for others to try.
