SYDNEY: Pancakes on the Rocks
Another sickly sweet indulgence I sometimes enjoy when travelling to Sydney is a visit to Pancakes on the Rocks. I personally think their pancakes are a lot better than those of say, Pancake Parlour in Melbourne and they are really good value as well, with most options under $12, and extra pancakes available for $2 each.

To eat - Hot n Troppo ($10.95): Buttermilk pancakes with grilled banana, walnuts, cream, chocolate ice cream and home made chocolate sauce. Delicious - though I did feel a little sick for the rest of the day after all of the chocolate and cream which I am not really used to. Certainly not a healthy choice but I guess a little indulgence is OK sometimes.


Pancakes on the Rocks have four locations throughout Sydney, with long trading hours 7 days a week. They serve reasonable meals including ribs and steaks as well as a tempting selection of sweet and savoury pancakes and crepes. If you haven't been before Pancakes on the Rocks is a great place to try. Not somewhere to visit every week, but I guess it can certainly be a nice indulgence every now and then.

Hi,

I'd like to give a $10 discount voucher to your site which your visitors could use in their take-away orders placed on Menulog (700 listed take away restaurants). All they have to do is just type the voucher code (which will be provided upon response to this email) at the check out. This is on top of any existing discounts our restaurants offer to your visitors as part of our normal process.

Please let me know what you think.

Cheers,

Cristal

It doesn't look very appetizing to me. Then again I only eat pancakes with plain maple syrup. It looked like it could give me a trip to the bathroom after I eat it.

This is sooo tempting!! I never went there. I always ate pancakes at the Pancake Parlour. Maybe sometimes I should try on this new place, perhaps.
