MAYBE THEY NEED TO USE A GEORGE FOREMAN GRILL: The Union Square neighborhood in New York got Manhattan's first IHOP below 125th Street, and many are thrilled with 24 hour Rooty Tooty Fresh 'N' Fruity, the restaurant's immediate neighbors are angry with the incessant smell of bacon.

    It seems that the noise and trash from the ventilation system are the big issues.  Complaining about the smell of bacon?  Sounds like "don't hate me because I'm beautiful."  Of course, the tenant did say it was "rancid bacon," which is a whole another thing.

    When are we getting a Perkins?

    Matt fails to mention that he got tossed out of this IHOP by the bouncer.  Yes, Manhattan IHOPs have bouncers...

    Is IHOP expanding in general?

    Your whole house smelling like bacon, when you don't want your whole house smelling like bacon.... Not so much fun.  

    I found the sight of the Union Square iHop to be completely garish and surreal -- it's so weird to see that setting contained in a building, rather than as its own free-standing structure.

    Also, being from Pittsburgh means that for me, there's only one true hotcake:

    For the record, I'm making pecan pie(s) and Chocolate Fudge Brownie Pie. And whipped cream to go with both.
