Dandenong Pancake Parlour calls it a day.

Corner of Princes Highway and Jones Road, Dandenong, 2017.

The restaurant opened in 1986, just days after the Chadstone Shopping Centre parlour opened, and the large, colourful building in the Princes Highway is a local landmark.

The freestanding restaurant was created with an Art Deco theme in a large 1930s building, with a replica of the Art Deco totem of the Chrysler Building in New York.

After the war the Argus published designs. My parents place 53 King Street was one of these and behind us in Sunnyside Avenue was another. Our block, 70 x 150 will now have 5 town houses on it. 4 x 3 bedroom with a double garage and one 2 bedroom with a carport.
