A Newcastle bar and restaurant will delight diners this Shrove Tuesday when it serves up its popular hanging pancake kebab with a meaty twist.
The Botanist in Newcastle city centre has brought back its "signature sell-out special" that sees miniature pancakes hung from skewers and stacked with a choice of three toppings. And for the first time, the chain is offering a savoury option with customers able to choose to stack their kebab with meat.
For £16.50, diners can tuck into The All American pancake kebab which comes stacked with fried chicken and maple bacon and served with mini hash browns and sriracha mayo. For those with a sweet tooth, customers can select The Rocky Road with Biscoff and Oreo rocky road pieces, served with strawberries, chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream, priced at £9.25.

The third pancake kebab is The Chocolate Orange for £8.95 made up of chocolate brownie chunks, orange brandy sauce and vanilla ice cream.
Each one is served with a pot of sauce made specially to drizzle down the kebab and for £2 more, diners can ‘add a Boozy Boost’ that will see their kebab served with a shot of Licor 43.
The Botanist has also confirmed that despite Shrove Tuesday taking place on February 21, it will continue to serve the pancake kebabs throughout the whole of February.
And kebab fans have already been quick to share their excitement on social media after the restaurant announced its Pancake Day offering via Instagram.
One diner posted, "Oh my God, I need to try them all." While another said, "I don’t know how I’d choose, but it might have to be the fried chicken!"
