Heavenly Hot Cakes
Cindy Lou & Penny Ann
Penny Ann’s Cafe is a relative newbie on the culinary landscape. It opened in 2011 and has been the go-to place for breakfast and lunch for a growing number of Salt Lakers. It’s not romantic in the traditional sense, but will be an equally memorable experience for two reasons: the food and customer service. Penny Ann’s Cafe specializes in making homemade comfort food. The sour cream Heavenly Hot Cakes are a must-try. Light, airy and buttery, they are the perfect item for breakfast. Fortunately, they come as a side to most entrees. Another go-to dish is the Pot of Gold, piled with ham, bacon, sausage, peppers, mushrooms and onions, all topped with cheddar cheese, two eggs and sausage gravy. And, yes, it’s served with the beloved Heavenly Hot Cakes. If you’re wanting to get into something a little wild, go for the breakfast nachos. Tortilla chips are fried in-house, smothered in housemade pork chili verde sauce, and topped with two eggs, cheddar cheese and sour cream. In addition to excellent food, the restaurant is also known for its welcoming customer service. You and your someone special will feel right at home. The Willey family—New York transplants and owners of Penny Ann’s—make a point to personally know their patrons. Multiple locations pennyannscafe.com
