I've driven by Joe's Pancake House countless times without really taking much notice of it. I mean, with a name that nondescript, it doesn't really jump out at you. But each time I went by, something whispered to me. So recently, I decided it was time to check it out. The building itself is about as generic as you can get — both inside and outside.
