Robo-Pancake

Just got back from being on the road this week. One hotel I was in had a free breakfast buffet. Most of the offerings were standard free breakfast items. Bagels, muffins, cereals, yogurt, bananas...that kind of stuff. But they also had a bizzaro pancake machine.

You press that big yellow button next to the screen and about a minute later, pancakes come out the side and drop onto a plate. Even kind of flips them so the prettier side is up.

Granted, these were not fantastic pancakes. But I wonder if they could be if a decent batter was used. Neat machine. Think I could teach the kids to use it and sleep in on Sundays?
