A Breakfast Connoisseur's Review: IHOP Edition

It's more than just pancakes.

A Breakfast Connoisseur's Review: IHOP Edition
Wikipedia Commons

As some of you may have read last week, I published an article entitled, The Importance Of Breakfast Foods. As a type of spin-off from that article, I wanted to go ahead and give a helpful list of some of the best breakfasts. But I honestly thought that would be boring. Not to mention there are also many different types of breakfasts andbreakfast establishments. So, here I am with probably the best review you will ever read, let's be real.

Because I am the stereotypical broke college student, most of my late night breakfast adventures tend to take place at Waffle House because it is cheap and tasty. Recently, I was with a friend and, as per usual, I suggested a dinner outing to a breakfast place. I guess this time we were feeling a little more fancy because next thing you know we were sitting at a table in an IHOP, which is tasty but not cheap.

The drinks.

Now I feel that with any breakfast orange juice is a must. Orange juice is the thing that ties breakfast together and let me tell you, IHOP did not deliver. Literally, did not deliver because my cup sat empty for a solid 15 minutes. An empty OJ cup is kind of disappointing when your mouth is burning on fire because you drenched your omelette in tabasco sauce. If you are not an OJ type a person you may be the coffee kind, and I did not order coffee so, unfortunately, I cannot review it -- oops.

The meal.

Yes, I went to the International House Of Pancakes and did not even eat a single pancake. Instead, I opted for a nice bacon and cheese omelette with a side of toast. And let me tell ya', that toast has a tragic story. The waitress never came back so I could ask for some butter for my toast and by time I had gotten around to eating it, my friend had already snuck a piece. Then, I ended up with cold and butter-less toast -- how sad. That omelette was smash, though.

Overal,l this experience would be rated a solid seven stars out of 10. I know this review was probably no help at all, but if you are ever hungry after a long shift at work and there's an IHOP across the street, hit it up. Why not?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
