It's National Pancake Week! Support your FAVE Fox 5 Anchors & Best Buddies & Good Eats!


Hash House A Go Go and FOX 5’s MORE! anchors give back with flapjacks

Flapjacks created for National Pancake Week help local charity Best Buddies

Hash House A Go Go joins together with KVVU FOX 5’s MORE! anchors for the third year in a row to create special pancakes in honor of National Pancake Week beginning today, Monday, Feb. 22. The original pancakes are being sold through Sunday, March 7 with a portion of the proceeds benefiting local charity Best Buddies.

FOX 5’s Jason Feinberg, Monica Jackson, Rachel Smith and newcomer Arran Andersen joined up with Chef Anthony Vidal of Hash House A Go Go to put their culinary skills to the test. Each anchor designed their own unique flapjack that is being sold at both Hash House A Go Go locations. The four dynamic anchors are being pitted against each other to find out whose pancake the community likes best. $2 from each of the FOX 5 pancakes sold will be donated to Best Buddies, an organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities by providing opportunities for one-on-one friendships and integrated employment. The best-selling flapjack will earn its creator the honor of having all the National Pancake Week proceeds donated to the charity in their name.

Andersen’s flapjack,” My Pancake is Berry Berry Good,” contains a mixture of blueberries, white sugar and white chocolate. Jackson’s pancake is “SAW-C,” which stands for strawberries, apples, white chocolate and cinnamon. Smith is keeping with her banana theme with the “Rachel’s Banana Bonanza,” a pancake made up of bananas, cinnamon and brown sugar and topped with whipped cream. Feinberg’s “Itchy & Scratchy’s Coco-Cocoa Kitty” is a tasty concoction of coconut, cocoa and chocolate. All four creations are featured on a special FOX 5 MORE! menu and priced at $8.95. The pancakes are available throughout breakfast, brunch and lunch at the Sahara location from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and at the Imperial Palace location from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily.
