# Heidi's Pancake House, South Lake Tahoe: Pancakes, Eggs and a Carved Bear Out Front

Heidi's Pancake House is a breakfast restaurant at 3485 Lake Tahoe Boulevard in South Lake Tahoe, California, with a carved wooden bear standing out front. Heidi's website says it has served breakfast in South Lake Tahoe since 1964, and my photos from a May 2022 morning show eggs, sausage and pancakes on a red plate.

## Heidi's pancakes, eggs and sausage

The plate in my cover photo holds two eggs fried sunny-side up with their yolks intact, four sausage links, and a stack of two pancakes topped with a dollop of white butter. The top pancake is dotted with small bubble holes, and a small orange-colored fruit that looks like a tangerine sits at the edge of the plate. A fork, spoon and knife rest on a paper napkin beside it. Heidi's website lists signature pancakes, four-egg omelets, fresh roast coffee, eggs your way, bacon, locally made sausage, home fried potatoes, fruit waffles, stuffed crepes, skillets, burgers, salads and sandwiches. I can't tell from the photo which menu item this plate was.

## The carved bear in front of Heidi's

Out front, a carved wooden bear stands on its hind legs with one front paw raised and its mouth open to show white teeth. Behind it is a lime-green building with white window frames and strings of lights under the eaves, and a low stone wall runs in front. A second carving that looks like a bear is partly visible behind the wall on the right. Heidi's website calls the restaurant's building a distinctive yellow Swiss chalet, while the walls in my photo look lime green.

In the close-up, the carving shows individual strands of fur, claws on the raised paw and white teeth.

## Inside Heidi's: a shelf of folk-art figures

Inside, a shelf under a wood-beamed ceiling is crowded with figures: a long-horned goat carving, a painted totem-style figure with spread wings, a doll in a red-and-white dress with blond hair, and a toy horse. Brass plates and wooden plaques hang on the wall below, including a small sign that reads EWES WELCOME, and a red LED sign at the lower left reads WELCOME TO.
