Shouldn't that be "Original Pancake House"?

Has anyone here been able to eat an entire Apple Pancake in one sitting?

Also, the service is, by Chicago standards, good--which means that, by
Hyde Park standards, it's out-of-this-world.

	Fortunately, there are locations in Lincoln Park, the Shire
(i.e. Oak Park), Evanston, and possibly elsewhere.  I've been to the first
two and they are much less noisy than the HP branch.  The menus are not
identical either (they lack the unsurpassed Dutch Baby Treat, for
instance, though Oak Park has something similar), but all branches seem to
have the Apple Pancake, the Dutch Baby, and the insanely thick-cut bacon.
What else do you need?

	How early do you get up?  At 8, it's quite empty, even on a
Sunday.
