The first time I had one was at Lonsdale Quay, they have a stand there, unbelievable...I had never even heard of them before.

They're called beaver tails in Canada and elephant ears in the USA. Nothing but a deep-fried piece of bread dough sprinkled with icing sugar and lemon juice. Additional toppings optional.
i used to have elephant ears at the pne way back when. i dont know any places that have them as a regular menu item.
ahah...and here I was thinking that it was going to be some sort of joke against female genetalia or actual beaver tails...LOL
That looks good but needs a little caramel. mmmmmmm
Gopher tails are probably better :)
