Jonnycakes
September 13, 1997

Rhode Island is it for Jonnycakes, those corn griddle cakes that inspire considerable debate as to which is the "true" jonnycake - plump and moist inside or thin, light and lacy. The Sterns suggest sampling both kinds from the following spots then deciding for yourself:

Jigger's Diner
145 Main Street
East Greenwich, RI
(401 884-5388
Serves breakfast and lunch. Dinner on Fridays only. The Jonnycakes here are of the "plump and moist inside" variety.

Common's Lunch
The Commons
Little Compton, RI
(401) 635-4388
Serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. "Thin, light and lacy" is the order of the day here.
