When we think of Flapjacks, one picture comes to mind –stacks of golden yellow light and fluffy pancakes all ready to be smeared with butter, whipped cream and bathed in glistening maple syrup.  We imagine hunky uniformed and expert “Flapjacks” men who flip and flap the pancakes into perfection.  But there is more to Flapjacks that just deliciously stacked signature pancakes and breakfast combos.

Their breakfast meals and items are available at any time of the day –whether at the crack of first sunlight, or when the sun is at its highest peak or when it’s about to kiss earth goodnight.  If you are craving for other fares, Flapjacks seasonally changes their menu to introduce new dishes that can stop a strike on your bored palates.

In 2008, I thought they still had a limiting menu but Flapjacks has long improved on the items they can offer.  And while they keep patrons’ palates refreshed every now and then, some look for Flapjacks dishes that have become their favorite.

I love all things chicken wings and Flapjacks Parmesan wings are one of the best Parmesan versions I have tasted so far.  I’d probably rate it Top 2 with the top spot going to Wingman’s lemon parmesan wings followed by Flapjacks closely behind.  The success of the wings rely heavily both on the crispiness of the skin and the actual glaze of the sharp Parmesan cheese which Flapjacks nailed on the spot.  It has that buttery taste but nothing overpowering.  Their Parmesan chicken wings are nowhere oily or dripping butter.
