give it up beav, i am sure all/most canadians know what "american" pancakes are. i actually prefer the thin dutch pancakes, which are more crepe-likeNot based on my experience in Montreal as I already said multiple times. I had pancakes made from crepe batter and paid for the meal. That was in Le Plateau. Chez Cora offered to make me pancakes from crepe batter and I said no. It's absolutely ridiculous and condescending to even suggest that!!!!
