Pancakes in nz are not thick. You get pancakes which are like crepes, or pikelets which are like small American pancakes.
American pancakes are disgusting. It’s like the equivalent of American carbon bacon.

The outlier I remember being when McDonalds started doing breakfast and they offered pancakes - I think I got them once when I had a super early flight at the airport and they were almost inedible- thin and rubbery! Easily the worst pancakes I’ve had in my life.
But I didn’t know what a thick American pancakes was until I moved to Australia mid 2000s. In NZ if I got them in a cafe they were like max 5-6mm in height. But always soft and fluffy.
But when I got to Australia and had American style they were always very thick. And it clogs the mouth. I don’t know how to explain it, but it requires me to have a drink while I eat them because there’s so much… cake… every Kiwi I knew in Australia also hated them.
