When the ToastedRav crew headed to the Olivette Diner, we came prepared with lots of denim, hungry stomachs - and of course, a copy of Head East's album cover, Flat as a Pancake. 

Melody, a regular at the Diner and a self-proclaimed lover of greasy breakfast foods, clued us in to the restaurant's location in the first place. Many of Olivette Diner's customers are regulars, and it's easy to see why. The staff was friendly, the food was made quickly and the feeling in the place made me want to have breakfast for lunch, too. Our group did pretty darn good on our many stacks of flap jacks, but how could you not love a restaurant that serves syrup in a little shot glass?

In addition to enjoying our stacks of moist, fluffy pancakes, we were on a mission to recreate Head East's album cover. For those of you who don't know, it was a famous classic rock band from the 1970's, and they just happened to be from the Midwest. Anyway, we put on our denim, and covered that same corner of the bar with our respective plates of pancakes. We even went so far as to make sure that facial expressions and the placement of the milk glass were spitting images of the original.

The pancakes were amazing, but next time I go back, I am going to have to try the breakfast burrito. The massive tortilla-wrapped breakfast is as big as my head, but that won't stop me. It looked that good.
