Liverpool’s traditional Pancake Day race is back this year, pitting the city’s top chefs against each other for Shrove Tuesday.
Held in the gardens of Liverpool Parish Church, the annual race sees chefs from top restaurants attempt to make the perfect pancake to flip while completing laps around the gardens.
The pancake must be thick enough to withstand the outdoors, light enough to be flipped cleanly while running, and must not fall from the pan.

Chefs from Hotel Indigo, Tempest, Ma Boyle's, Artists Club and Lunyalita will race on Tuesday, March 1 at 11am.
The winner receives an engraved pancake pan, presented by the Rector of Liverpool, the Revd Canon Dr Crispin Paling.
It marks the start of a year of special events to celebrate and platform Liverpool’s hospitality industry.
‘Taste Liverpool. Drink Bordeaux’ is a new festival taking place from June 2-5 to coincide with the Queen’s Jubilee Celebrations.
The team behind the festival, including some of the city’s best known chefs and restaurateurs, are promising ‘the most delicious weekend of the year’.
