We found ourselves on a Saturday with no prior commitments, no plans or errands to run - a small victory in itself. We decided to make a family day of it, and started our day off with breakfast at Pancake Pantry. The Pancake Pantry is a Nashville staple. There is no doubt that when you … Continue reading #132 Nate’s 1st Pancake Pantry Experience.
