Two Twins

So this culinary journey of ours really started at Two Twins on North Cotner.  I had read about it on the Lincoln Journal Star website, and had been wanting to try it for a while.  On Fathers Day we decided to give it a shot.

Being that it was Fathers Day we had no expectation of getting seated quickly, and we did have to wait for a half hour or so for a table.  Waiting was enjoyable though, being that they bake everything in house and the place smells terrific.  I think that I ordered the usual (ham, eggs, white toast), Abby had the biscuits and gravy, and Z ordered pancakes and bacon.

Now for Abby to say her biscuits and gravy were good would be an understatement.  They are now what all B&G's are measured against.  The bar has been set.  I tried them and they are amazing I can not argue against her position on this at all.

My "usual" breakfast was fine.  Ham and eggs, just like I've eaten a million times.  An old favorite, just like putting on your favorite pair of jeans.  Its what you expect and what you like but... the best thing I ate that day was not what I ordered.

Zander had his "usual" as well. Pancakes and bacon.  He typically doesn't finish all of his meal, so while we were waiting for the check I tried a bite of his pancake.  AMAZING!  I can honestly and without a doubt say this was the best pancake ever created by man.  For once I was glad that he didnt eat all of his meal.  More pancakes for me!!  I'm really not even a pancake kinda guy.  I eat them, and they are usually OK, but never like this.  I can hardly put into words how good they are.  Go there and order them. 

That day we learned a few things about Two Twins:
1. All biscuits and gravy wish they could be their biscuits and gravy.
2. They make the best pancakes on the entire planet. (I'm kinda getting sick of talking about them, but they are THAT good)
3. They have the top spot on our list, and it will take a heck of a lot to dethrone them.
4. The line at the door wasn't because it was fathers day.
