Jerry Lapin, Al Lapin, and Albert Kallis founded International House of Pancakes in 1958 with the help of Sherwood Rosenberg and William Kaye. In addition Peter Marsoobian, executive Chef and graduate of the world renowned Le Corrdon Bleu in Paris, France helped form the original menu and many of the original pancakes and crepes, including his award winning Buttermilk Pancakes. The first restaurant opened on July 7, 1958, at 4301 Riverside Drive in Burbank, California.[1]
The location is coincidentally across from the oldest remaining Bob's Big Boy restaurant. Albert Kallis was a professional artist who designed the film posters of American International Pictures in the 1950s. Director Bert I. Gordon recalled that Kallis designed their logo[6] and left poster artwork.
