It’s hard to believe, but Christmas is just around the corner as is the end to another year! 2018 was a good one, filled with many memorable moments shared round a table with family and friends. We feel so lucky to have the support of the Denver community through another year and look forward to what 2019 will bring! As we reflect back on the past year, we like to remember our favorite breakfasts for each month of 2018. Here they are!
January: Bitter cold January is always hallmarked by renewed devotion to healthy eating, especially after our usual holiday indulgence! For January, we love a bowl of our Old Fashioned Oatmeal with skim milk, raisins, and brown sugar!
February: Share the love! In February we always share a plate of Cherry Kijafa Crepes with someone special. Nothing says “I love you” like a delicious breakfast for two!
March: In March we begin to dream of Spring! And with Spring, all we can think of are fresh eggs. Ok, and Easter Bunnies too! In March we love to rotate through our selection of Eggs Benedict dishes, they are all so good!
April: In April, when Spring finally does arrive in the Mile High City, we can’t get enough fresh veggies! We love the Florentine Omelette, filled with fresh spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms and Swiss to celebrate the changing season!
May: We love a zesty and fresh Lemon Poppy Seed Waffle in May! It reminds us of a dish our mother’s would love – a golden brown Belgian waffle baked with lemon zest and poppy seeds, served with fresh whipped butter and homemade warm blueberry compote syrup.
June: Bring on the fresh berries! Each June we celebrate the return of fresh berry season with fresh Strawberry Crepes, fresh Strawberry Waffles, and Blueberry Pancakes!
July: With summer vacation in full swing, we can think of nothing better than a leisurely breakfast on our patio! We usually opt for French Crepes with a side of Fresh Fruit for the warmest days of the year.
August: Back to school month! For all the kids who are sad to see the end of summer vacation, we recommend Chocolate Chip Pancakes to sweeten the mood!
September: September’s golden days have us thinking about cooler weather to come! September also marks green chile season so we always opt for the Pork Green Chile Omelette this time of year!
October: With fall in full swing, we always try Sarah’s Pumpkin Pancakes! They are so delicious and really capture the flavor of the season.
November: November marks the beginning of the holidays and usually brings a bit of chill to Denver. To keep us warm, we love to order Biscuits with Sausage Gravy and Eggs.
December: ‘Tis the season to celebrate! Each December we are so excited to celebrate the return of the OPH holiday specials! The Ho! Ho! Ho! Plate and special holiday sausage links are our favorites!
From all your friends at the Original Pancake House in Denver, we wish you a very happy holiday and best wishes for the new year! We look forward to seeing you in 2019!
