Talk about a man with conviction! Jonny and his brother Benjy started The Skinny Pancake in Burlington, VT out of a hand-made cart in 2003, and fifteen years later they have seven locations, a commissary kitchen, a catering business, a festival bus ... and that original cart is still around.

Jonny has a ton of passion for what he does, and runs his business with a very clear purpose and focus. Enjoy...
