Eat These Pancakes (Without Your Stomach Exploding) And You’ll Get Free Prosecco

@bisibajomo

What would you do for free pancakes and Prosecco? At the Polo 24 Hour Bar in London, that’s a reality if you complete the pancake tower challenge, which involves devouring twelve pancakes stacked and stuffed with bananas, berries, chocolate and strawberry sauces, and vanilla ice-cream. Oh, and you have to do it in 15 minutes without any help.

The pancakes — which together are stacked more than 15 inches high — are piled on top of a wooden block and pierced with a wooden stick so that they stay in place while you eat your way through the tower. The whole presentation is pretty ridiculous and beautiful.

If you finish the whole thing in time, you’ll get your meal comped along with a free bottle of Prosecco. If you don’t finish this monster pile of pancakes, you’ll have to pay about $20 for your meal. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal, right? But beware, your eyes might be bigger than your stomach. Only nine people have ever completed the full challenge, which is part of the restaurant’s “Pancake Week.”

If you’re living in London or traveling through the Bishopsgate neighborhood of the city, stop by and see if you can tackle this mountain of carbs. Depending on your appetite it could be seriously debilitating or a piece of cake.
