Pancakes are meant to be round, of a certain thickness and stacked on top of each other. With a little bar of butter slowly melting on top and maple syrup dripping evenly on all sides. Well that's what they look like in pictures

.. i had a run in with some pretty tough Crepes in high school... damn, upstarts!! budumpchuck! bad joke... .. actually crepes use more egg in them than your average pancake.
making the perfect pancake is all effort, very little talent, it takes doing it with regularity. i too like them different ways. personally i'm not the golden brown type, i like em brown. and i like them with coconut and raisins in them with enough butter to kill an elephant and the dietetic's nightmare of syrup... If i keep going something bad will happen.
Pancakes rock. Several summers in a row I'd come back after swim practice and make pancakes every day. it was a ritual. Why did i make my own pancakes? Week 3 into that first summer my mother was fed up with my complete refusal to alter my breakfast diet i was therefore left to my own pancake heaven. :)

haha. i guess you won that round. pancakes rock. i might try them with coconut. not sure about the raisins. but just thinking of all those flavours now, i think you're onto something!
gads! there's so much to do with pancakes. my friend's mom used to put fresh apple in them. and i tried them with apple and pear or pineapple... all fresh. i LOVE em love em love em. :D

yes, i think they're just crepes then if with sugar and lemon? in paris, they have stalls selling those and they just call them 'plain' crepes. :P
but yeah, it all depends where they're from and what they put on them.
thanks for comment,
