PJ's Pancake House

               

My favorite restaurant is PJ's Pancake House. It is located at 154 Nassau St, Princeton, NJ 08540. It is a unique little restaurant with tables that you can draw or carve things into. The food served here is mostly breakfast which is served all day long, but also pastas, burgers, and wraps. 

My favorite dishes from Pj's are the oreo pancakes and chocolate milk. The oreo pancakes are simply delectable and taste delicious. They are chock full of calories, but it's worth it! I also love Pjk's Belgian waffles, french fries, and onion rings. All the food served at Pj's is definitely served extremely well.

Pj's pancake house isn't a chain restaurant, however they have another location in West Windsor Township. If Pj's pancake house closed down, I literally would probably cry. The food is so good that it makes me cry. I would probably settle for some dinner, but never iHop!

Wiki Research

  1. How can a wiki be used in your current classes? (tip: Use the Internet, here is a good source). Be specific to your classes!                                                                                                             A wiki can be used to collaborate on information, or do group projects together, as in English. We can create a document and add things to it. We could also use the wiki to locate information or use it as a starting point for a thesis statement. 
  2. What are the benefits of using a wiki?                                                                                                     You can look up information, and collaborate on work with others, anonymous or not.
  3. How can we create one in this class and utilize it?                                                                             We could google search for one, find one, and use it. We could use it for group projects when meeting with your partner isn't an option.
  4. What experience do you have using or creating wikis?                                                                        I have no experience creating, but I have used wikis to research information.
