The King of Johnny V’s Challenge at Johnny V’s Classic Cafe

I’m a big fan of breakfast food so these breakfast challenges always appeal to me more than 10 pounds of beef or 30″ of pizza, I may have to make a drive up to Wisconsin to check out The King (or Queen) of Johnny V’s Challenge in West Allis, WI. This challenge is definitely fit for a king (or queen) and I am in awe of anyone that can even come close to finishing this. The starch in the pancakes alone would be enough to put me down, I can barely finish 4 pancakes at iHop let alone 8 of them with a side of 10 eggs! So if you’re up for the challenge and love breakfast food as much as I do, this is the challenge for you.
