This year, it's on Thursday 2 février.

I am just wondering if someone can give me a recipe and instructions on how to make pancakes like the French?

Have asked lots of people and no one has ever given me quantities or how to make other than to say "I use my crèperie".  One women said, just get the batter to the consistency of emulsion paint!

I have more or less given up making them.  I find American pancakes are the easiest to make as you use some bicarb and the pancakes are smaller rounds and puff up nicely.
