hot cake

Perhaps all of the restaurants selling cabbage dishes like hot cakes or Danny’s special dish on this week’s “Top Chef” episode might be the harbinger of a new era for the cruciferous standby.

I always say, there’s nothing like fresh hot cake and cold milk to make a body feel better on a funeral day.

And it sold like hot cakes, apparently, at a time when hot cakes were selling pretty well.

Released under the title “Lafayette,” it was the first commercial recording of Cajun music ever made, and it sold like hot cakes.

With a smile, the hotteok lady gave her one more of the piping hot cakes and shooed the kids away.
