Kevin’s pancakes look fantastic. Thank you for sharing the recipe! Isn’t it funny to have a family favorite named for someone you have no idea who it is? We have a few of those too.

As a fellow maple lover and Francophile, I highly recommend the maple tart at Clamato. The recipe is out there in the internet ether. In French 😱 Google Clamato tartelette d’erable recette. I’ve made them and they are exactly like the ones at Clamato/ Tapisserie. Except for the whipped cream part which I couldn’t make into a perfect giant quenelle. I thought for 5 seconds about buying the Septime cookbook but the maple tart recipe is about the only one accessible to a home cook. Or a least to this home cook. If you do make the tartelettes note that the maple syrup amount is in centiliters, not millliliters. I didn’t notice at first!

So funny how that happens! I have to try that recipe! I had one of the best meals of my life at Clamato a couple years ago. Also: in the market for a great simple chocolate cake if you have a recipe in mind!

Hi Phoebe- I too am a maple fanatic! I love this post and am especially fond of VT maple syrup. However, Ohio's is nice too! Sophie recently shared some with her family in Zambia and they did not love it! Imagine maple syrup being an entirely new concept?! I for one am happy I have been able to enjoy it so much in so many happy places with wonderful memories! Sappy I know!
