George's Apple Pancakes Are a Homemade Treat

George's Kitchen is a Sound Beach staple. One of the only sit-down restaurants in the area, the diner-type spot serves all kinds of homestyle comfort food from meatloaf to chicken pot pie. Breakfast is available all day, and the restaurant's apple cinnamon pancakes are a treat for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

The Dish: Apple Cinnamon Pancakes ($5.75 for 3 pancakes)

What's Inside: Real chunks of baked apples and cinnamon mixed into the pancake batter before they're cooked.

How's it Taste: While most breakfast joints slobber fruity syrup on top of their pancakes, George's mixes real fruit into the batter, which makes all the difference. The baked apple chunks are sweet and tender with the skin still on, and add just enough flavor to the pancakes without being overwhelming. The pancakes themselves are moist and fluffy, and the cinnamon adds the perfect kick.

Side Dishes: Whether you're eating these for breakfast or dinner, you won't need a side dish if you get the regular stack. Three pancakes are so filling they're hard to finish by themselves.
