Where am I?

This is certainly not something you normally see in downtown Phoenix….or is it? I was at the downtown Public Market on Saturday for its 4th Anniversary celebration and was approached by the fellow wearing these wooden shoes who was offering a plate of Poffertjes for sampling. Poffertjes are puffy Dutch pancakes and they are delicious with a little powdered sugar or syrup or jam. The Dutch Poffertjes House has a handy little mobile stand that sells these wonderful treats along with coffee, tea, and other drinks. Judging from the lines of people, it’s a popular breakfast stop at the Saturday market.

You can see a picture of these sweet pancakes included in this local newspaper review.

    They don't look too comfortable. The pofferties sound yummy!

    Have a great week!

    What a cozy shot this is. Those clogs must have sounded great on the pebbley path. I wonder if I can find a recipe for pofferties?

    Clogs and poffertjes in Phoenix, wow! I also like the painted tulips on the clogs. Great PR for Holland!
