 American Pancake

Each day there is a breakfast special and this was March 13th special at Cochem's port.  



As you can see the pancakes are very thin, more like a silver dollar in size.  Half of the time you can find this in the buffet alternating with waffles, which are also thin and light.  The buffet serves them with either vanilla sauce or fruit sauce.  You can also find syrup, which is very thin, on the buffet counter.  There was another sauce I tried too, it might have been molasses.  It was very dark and heavy but not as thick as molasses.  I asked and was total it was a form of sugar.  To me American pancakes were closer to a crepe, which I love.  One of the morning they had pancakes in the buffet but with vanilla sauce and the special with Hawaiian Toast.  Not a fan of Hawaiian toast or vanilla suce, so I asked if I could get fruit sauce instead.  I was so delighted to get a bowl of fruit sauce.  That was my favorite breakfast.

One of the things we wondered about our trip was What about the food.  What were we going to eat.  Was it good.  Would it be our style of food.  I have to say the food was amazing.  Presentation of each plating was thought out.  Some items were carefully sculpted into shapes and placed on the plates.   Images were taken with a Nikon P7000 camera, never thought the food would look so good to have brought my good cameras along.
