Jethro's Fine Grub

One of the first things I've heard about Jethro's is their large and fluffy pancakes. As a fan of pancakes, I had to go and try their pancakes. I went with a friend for Sunday brunch and we were lucky we were seated after a few minutes. The place is pretty small and it was packed as we were leaving and there was even a line up. I've heard stories that people wait over an hour for seats, so it's best to arrive there early as they don't take reservations. Jethro's is located on the corner of 16th and Dunbar Street.

The Rooster (buttermilk pancakes with a shot of
espresso and dark chocolate chips)



We ordered The Rooster (~$10) - buttermilk pancakes with a shot of espresso and dark chocolate chips, topped off with whipped cream. You have the option of getting chocolate gravy for an additional $1.50 but we decided not to after talking to the waitress and she told us that it's already quite chocolate-y with the chocolate chips. The dish came with only two pancakes, but they were huge. I have to say, they were very fluffy and filling - we couldn't even finish it. The whipped cream melted on top of the pancakes and I think that made it yummier.

Crab cake benedict (with hashbrown and toast)

We also got the house made crab cake benedict ($~11). Those were some yummy crab cakes! The rest of the food on the plate was pretty normal - poached eggs with hollandaise sauce, potatoes, and toast. The description on the menu says hash brown, but it's basically just potatoes. I thought they were a little plain, but other than that, I did enjoy this dish.
