Hotcakes had a slightly crispy exterior which contrasted well with its fluffy interior. The ice-cream added some moisture to the hotcake, which was a bit dry for my liking. The pumpkin seeds add a bit of earthiness to the flavours. The pumpkin seeds would have tasted weird with the hotcake if not for the lavender ice cream which blended the flavours and aromas quite well. The dish could do without the herbs which failed to add a pleasant punch to the dish and was quite discordant with the other aromas and flavours of the dish.
