While cross border shopping the boyfriend had a massive pancake craving so we headed to Mother's Cupboard in Syracuse, NY. Not only are the pancakes larger than the plates they're served on, the frittatas are so big they come with their own challenge. If you manage to down the six pound hash brown, broccoli, sausage, pepperoni, onions and pepper monstrosity you'll win a t-shirt and a spot on the wall of champions. The boyfriend was able to finish a chocolate chip pancake and an order of french toast while I picked at a half order of the famous frittata. If you go, Mother's is open till 1:30pm and cash only - come hungry.
