my hungarian family also is very fond of potato pancakes, grated raw potato with plenty of garlic and onion, sometimes egg but no flour, fried crispy in bacon grease and served for breakfast or dinner with lecso' (a sort of goulash soup) very inexpensive peasant food but we never went hungry :)

    True, it's easy to make potato pancakes at home. My mom used to make some very good ones. I knew when our funds were low when we'd have them for dinner. The other dinner entree would be noodles and bacon with cinnamon.

    Anyway, I found a great place to have them out and that is the Original Pancake House in Charlotte. They come with the eggs benedict and are the thinist tastiest potato pancakes! I think OPH is a nationwide chain.

    The absolute best potato pancakes were a Tatra Inn, a Polish restaurant on the SW side of Chicago. They are currently closed, but looking for a new location. They have THE Best Polish food anywhere! Seriously! I keep calling them every now and then to make sure they haven't given up on finding a new location. If anyone wants to chime in their number is (773)582-8313.

      I haven't tried it yet, but I've seen recommendations that you use your leftover colcannon and try an Irish potato pancake made that way.

      The trouble is the phrase "leftover colcannon." If I have any, it's too tempting to just microwave the leftovers and wolf them down. Guess I'll never know.
