The Bacon Pancake plate has two strikes against it from the jump: these cakes are heavy and filling, supplementing the usual amount of batter with a not inconsiderable hash of shredded bacon. It gets worse, because it turns out that the commingled tastes of bacon grease—the grease was not removed or absorbed in any way, and the fat wasn’t trimmed, so it’s in there as well—makes the pancake gross.
