In a win for all tiny house lovers with a penchant for pancakes, IHOP is hosting a free tiny-house dinner series this December.

For four nights in Los Angeles, from December 12-15, IHOP will host diners in the world's tiniest IHOP for a tiny tasting menu inspired by classic IHOP dishes. There will be three seatings available: 5 p.m., 7:30 p.m., and 10 p.m., and the Tiny IHOP is hidden in a secret location.

The tiny restaurant was constructed in partnership with A&E's "Tiny House Nation." The first restaurant project built by "Tiny House Nation" hosts John Weisbath and Zack Giffin, the Tiny IHOP features 170 square feet of kitchen and dining space. The dining area seats six: two at a pancake bar overlooking the kitchen and four in a booth. The Tiny IHOP is also equipped with custom design features like a syrup caddy in a built-in shelf.

"It's kind of a natural fit if you think about it, because we're the International House of Pancakes - this is the Tiny House of Pancakes, basically," Jay Johns, IHOP's president, told Business Insider's Kate Taylor on Wednesday.

Reservations will be available only to fans who sign up for IHOP's loyalty program, MyHOP, by midnight PT on October 20. Booking instructions will be emailed out on October 24, when fans will be able to make reservations for two through Yelp. Reservations will be first-come, first-served and include complimentary access to the event and dinner.

IHOP is also holding a sweepstakes for the chance to win an all-expenses-paid trip for two to Los Angeles to attend the event. The winners will receive travel, two nights of accommodation, a Tiny IHOP dinner reservation, and more. Fans must be MyHOP members in order to enter.
