- We're in America. - We're in America.
- We're not still in America.
I mean, we've left by the time you see this.
- Or have we? - Or-- Oooh!
No, we definitely have.
We definitely have, we can't afford to live out here.
What are you talking about?
"Star Spangled Banner" plays
- Hang on, does IHOP stand for something?
- Yeah, international.
- [Producer] International House of Pancakes.
- House of pancakes.
- My mind is blown.
I did not know that at all.
- So IHOP is the International House of Pancakes.
- That's correct? - Yeah so.
- Whatever happened when they changed it to IHOB?
- Didn't they try to rename it to like
the International House of Breakfast?
And then they were like, everyone was like, "No."
- IHOB. - IHOB, yeah.
(goofy music)
- Aw, boys! - Oh, boys.
- Aw, boys! - [Producer] Aw, boys!
- Aw, boys! - Pancake time.
- Fat stacks like racks on racks.
(Lolsy chuckles)
Jesus Christ, look at that.
- So what do we got here?
We got the, oh whipped cream,
whipped sweet cream butter.
They can't just do the regular butter, can they?
It's whipped sweet cream butter, salted.
- So it's basically just butter buds, real hard.
- That's kind of iconic, isn't it?
- And they pad that on top
and then you, you do your thing
and then you get your syrup and you're all.
Yeah, it's great.
- This I'm all about the syrup.
This, look if so, amount of fluff, that's so.
- Feel it, there you go. - That's so fluffy.
- You could put your head and you go to sleep on that.
(Kellie chuckles)
- It's a nice, there's a nice heft to those.
There's a nice wobble. - It's a good stack.
- It's a good stack. - Yes.
- It's a good aul' stack of pancakes.
- I've seen in cartoons,
they just cut straight into like a cake.
- Yeah.
A pan-cake.
- Really 'cause I just want to do this.
- They're so soft.
- Okay. - You having trouble there?
- Nope. - You sure?
- Ooh. - It's my first time.
Okay, there we go.
- Aw, that's a good drizzle right there, am I right?
Now that's gonna pour off the sides.
Aw, boys! - Looks really good.
- Yeah.
(Colin cries) (Lolsy chuckling)
- Yeah, they're lovely.
I think you need to drown them in the sauce though.
- You actually do.
- It's fluffy as fuck. - Yeah.
- Second fluffy.
Like hugging Winnie the Pooh.
- That's such a, that's exactly what this is like.
- It's faf pancake stack. - Love a bit of faf pancake.
- Mad for the faf.
- I love a faffy pancake.
Because I'm a bad widdle baby.
(both laughing)
- That's yeah.
I mean that's a drug right there.
Just, you'd just drink that.
- I just like doing this.
- I just put a straw in that
and just drink it up, yeah. - Oh, Christ.
- Oh, just wanna shower in that syrup.
- Really good. - That was really good.
- That was really, that, that, that.
Do you know what, that was really good.
(both laughing)
- Why not now? - It's future Kellie's problem.
- Oh. - Oh.
Fan cake.
(Justine laughing)
- Get out.
That was awful.
(goofy music)
Don't get more American than this.
- Chicken and waffles.
- Well, there's something here for you
and there's some here for me. - Yay.
- Component parts. - Yeah.
- Class. - Yeah.
- Waffles for breakfast, 100% yeah.
Fried chicken on top of that for breakfast.
- Yes.
- Again I'm not against, just what? - This is.
- You know when you're in school
and you'd be doing an essay
and you just pour syrup on it
'cause it was just pure waffle.
- Just you. - Just me.
Okay, just my essay is pure waffle then.
- This seems like a dinner to me.
- Chicken's not a breakfast food.
I'd never consider chicken as breakfast.
- No, but now I'm like, why?
Why not? - Why not?
- Who came up with this though?
Who taught this?
Like, 'cause in Ireland we have a chicken filet roll.
- Oh, a dream. - Which is yeah, an iconic.
Iconic number to get if you come to Ireland
but here it seems to be chicken and waffles.
That's their dish.
- We're putting pancakes syrup on fried chicken.
What's happening?
- I'm really excited. - This is not right.
- Oh, floppy.
- IFLOP.
(Lolsy laughs)
- We're getting closer.
(Both laughing)
- Oh.
- Chicken, good.
Waffle, good.
- Both chicken and waffle good?
- Good, yeah.
- I like that now.
- That's fluffy.
That's fluffy as all hell.
- This is Southern fried chicken.
- Yeah. - Well, it's sweet.
- Yeah. - It doesn't make sense to me.
It's not bad. - Mm.
(leaf blower wheezing)
- Here's the thing
if you're hearing some ambient sound right now,
it's because again we're in America.
So instead of sort of a makeshift studio
and there seems to be
either someone with a leaf blower
or someone is, is
is rogering a rhinoceros, it's one or the other.
So if you're hearing that.
We don't know if it's picking up,
but if you are, I'm sorry.
And if you're not, try to imagine that.
- No. - Oh, you do that.
Oh, you've got a little pocket of syrup in it.
- Little pocket of.
Little pocket of goo.
- And who doesn't love a pocket of goo?
- Like my head's telling me no,
but I can't, it's, it's really good.
- It's like eating a dream.
- A terrifying, terrifying dream.
- The waffle is um, how do you feel about the waffle?
- The waffle is a bit too.
(leaf blower wheezing increasingly louder)
- We've flown 4,000 miles to do this.
Give us a break.
(goofy music)
What the fuck is this?
(both laughing)
- Scrambled eggs and. - Scrambled eggs and
hash brown. - Oh, it is a hash brown.
- Ooh. What's that? Is that mustard?
Oh my God, is that mustard?
- It's honey mustard I believe.
- I quite like, I've had American hash browns before
and I quite like it, it's just grated fried potato.
- Aw.
They are some fine scrambled eggs.
If my mother saw those she'd be jealous,
'cause this is, what we get is not like that at all.
- Oh God.
Like it's one of those things.
Oh, yeah the Irish love potatoes.
I'm sorry to be that stereotype.
I feckin' love potatoes.
- We came all the way over here,
just to try some potatoes.
That's good.
- How do Americans make their eggs?
Because when we make eggs, we.
'Cause I use milk.
- Same, a bit of pepper. - So, yeah.
- Bit of salt, add a bit of flavour.
- So I think it's missing the dairy.
- Do you feel,
do you feel it was worth flying 4000 miles for this?
- Maybe 3000. - 3000 miles.
He'd go for three Vanessa Carltons for this.
- Man, these are pretty good.
I'd be dabbing on them taters.
(Lolsy laughing)
- Get out, get out of here.
- You couldn't raise a family on that.
- You're right, spaghetti ball, just no sustenance there.
- Where are you going?
ISTOP, huh?
- I need to learn how to make this.
It's probably very like
just get yourself a grater. - I think yeah.
- [Producer] I think it is just grated peeled potato.
- Grated, yeah. - It's so good.
- Or just got a real small peeler.
It's like make them bigger, guys.
- Bring the pancakes back will ya.
- A bit off. - I think so.
I think. - Tasty potato, good potato.
- I know I wanna have a little bit of everything,
but I actually can't.
I'm kind of getting a bit full now.
- I'm getting very full. - Very full.
- You say these things. - Mm.
- And yes, bear with me, the food.
- Hold on, let me just get some more.
- Yeah, fair.
- The food keeps entering. - Before you make your point,
let me just get, get some more of the food.
- The food keeps entering your mouth hole.
- What's your point?
- Um, no, it's completely unrelated.
I was just observing.
- Mm. - Yeah.
- You gonna finish that?
- No, you finish.
- I'm not gone on it. - I feel--
(Seán giggles)
(goofy music)
- Oh, yeah baby. - Aw.
- Grilled cheese sandwiches.
- La toast, la France.
- Oh, the french toast. - French toast, what.
- Is it savoury or sweet French toast?
- [Producer] Sw... w-eet?
- Sw...w-eet - Sw...w-eet, gawrsh.
- I'm excited for this. - Yeah, excited yeah.
- Or maybe not. - No. Yeah yeah.
- You smelled it.
- Yeah.
Ah yeah, give it a go.
- Do we need syrup on these ones or just drinks?
- Yeah, we got any syrup?
- Oh no, what do we have, we actually have none.
- Nah, none. We poured it all out.
We could do without syrup.
- That was, that was a, whoa!
Oh God.
- Third time lucky. - One more, one more.
- Third time lucky, here we go.
Whoa.
(loud beep)
Oh.
- First try. - First time.
- Okay, well let's raise a toast.
(Lolsy chuckles)
- Well that's the good stuff right there.
- It's, the bread is really like a brioche, I think.
- People need the syrup on it?
- Yeah, wouldn't they?
Or like, making a sandwich
outta these, I feel like this isn't enough.
- That could be game changing.
- [Producer] How does it compare to the pancakes?
- It's not pancakes.
- It's different.
This is toast.
- This is, oh yeah.
- I don't know about you,
I just don't like the brioche bread, I think.
It's just a, it's not for me.
It's just not for me.
- Fucking eejit.
- I prefer french toast made at home.
There you go. - Oh, you prefer Irish toast?
- Wouldn't be my first choice. - No.
- But I also don't know what my first choice.
I think it would just be like a bowl of this.
(Colin chuckles)
Went to International House of Pancakes.
Only ate honey mustard.
- Can I get free refills please, um?
- The issue with a hash brown
was that you couldn't get it to your face
without it breaking off. - Yeah.
- And this is a bit bland.
Throw them together, dream team.
- This is what dreams are made of.
This is what wet dreams are made of.
- Exactly.
Oh, Christ.
(Justine laughing)
Quick, someone get Justine a towel.
(goofy music)
- Hop on me. - Wow.
Whose stomach did you pull this out of?
- Oh, unbelievable.
- Ohh, that is a fucking spongy strawberry.
(Dermot chuckles)
Strawberries, strawberries.
- The smell is fantastic.
- Does smells unbelievable, to be fair.
- Whoa, whoa.
In the words of Crash Bandicoot,
Woah! - Woah!
- This is, they've given us what we asked for.
Like we said it was too dry the first time around, now look.
Now it's wet and I'm wet.
It's just. - Oh, Jesus.
Stafford.
- [Producer] Four buttermilk pancakes
filled with cheesecake bites
and topped with glazed strawberries.
- How you feeling?
- Yeah, they're kinda lighter than the regular ones.
- We've been ordering the wrong thing.
- Absolutely, that's it.
- Where's the cheesecake bites?
- Where are you, cheese?
- Hey guys. - Come out, cheese.
- Come here. - Come here.
(Lolsy whistles).
- It looks extravagant.
I think I was expecting more.
- I honestly think this, this could, this.
This is it.
- We've peaked, we've peaked. - We've done it, yeah.
Yes we can. - I say no more videos.
We've peaked. - This is it.
- Oh my God.
(Lolsy chuckles)
- [Producer] What is it? Why's it so nice?
- It's just nice and creamy. - Cream, yeah.
You know the way cream?
Yeah.
- I would have this for breakfast,
dinner, a snack, lunch.
- Oh God.
- For the rest of my life.
- There's good left in the world.
- There's good.
I believe humanity can be saved.
- Here's the thing about doing taste tests in America.
We've already eaten
and your portions are massive, America.
- Oh God.
- That's the thing, if you asked for pancakes in Ireland
they'll just be like, "Here's your one pancake."
You'd be like, "Ah, okay."
Here they're just like, "Here's a dinner of pancakes."
You're like.
(Colin groans)
- We've been here for a while now
and we've been having food at regular times.
- And like we love it, it's good.
- Big fans.
- But there's a lot. - So much.
- There's so much of it.
And I just can't eat anymore.
- I'm not entirely certain
that Dermot won't explode right beside me.
- This table has gotten very sticky.
- Yeah.
- I don't know if it's from the food or from me.
I have no idea. - Jesus.
(Justine laughing)
- Well, now that we've had FIVEHOP,
I think I'm gonna.
- I need a nap. - Die... DIEHOP.
- I mean presumably we're not gonna,
if we're going for breakfast on IHOP
we're not gonna be ordering all of it.
So. - That's a fair point.
- You know what I mean? - It's a fair point.
- If I had one of those things
apart from the gash browns, then you know I'd be fine.
- Quit your mess and don't pick on near the hash brown
or the omelet, you're wasting their time
because they're not.
They're grand, they're grand,
but they're not going to. - Change your life.
- Yeah. - Like that just did.
- Yeah, I wish we had IHOP in Ireland
but if we had it, I would just never leave.
You know, I'd just be like, "More chicken."
(Lolsy laughs)
- Do you know what I hope?
- What? - I hope
