Paula’s Pancake House


The most popular restaurant in Solvang is Paula’s Pancake House according to Tripadvisor and other travel sites.
If it’s the number one favorite eatery in Solvang then we must try it too.

The wait was long. All tables indoors and outdoors were fully occupied.  There was no more physical distancing here.  All tables and chairs were being used.

We knew there would be a long wait so What we did was to list our names first. We were told that the wait would be an hour so we made us of our tim4 by exploring the surroundings while cognizant of the time.

My husband has been so considerate lately.  Dati masyadong mapili, ngayon he has a more open mind.  Okay lang kahit saan ko gusto kumain.

Sunny side-up eggs, hash brown, sausage, and toasts for me.  Nothing spectacular.  Same taste as in Denny’s and IHOP.

Thank you to the guy who drove several hours for me to get here. Who accompanied me while waiting for a table. Who gladly dined with me and paid for my meal too.
