Nope, we literally don't have it this in the US from what I can tell. The closest thing we have is this:  Edit: I'm fully aware that Yorkshire pudding is not pancake batter.

It is similar to a corn dog in the fact that it is meat covered in batter and fried. Corndogs are delicious, and I don't think I've ever had these things before...

On a related note - do most people have lunch and dinner or dinner and tea?

From the speaking-the-same-but-different-language moments my wife and I have it seems to be;
In the UK and Ireland lunch and tea/dinner/supper (last three being interchangeable)
In the US lunch and dinner (when I say tea my wife assumes I'm talking about the hot beverage. Sometimes supper is used also when talking about dinner)

What can I cook for the wife for tomorrow's dinner?
Normally, I just throw something in the oven, but tomorrow I'll have time to do something nice

There is the ever popular steak, with green beans and potatoes of some form.
Chicken breast sliced open and stuffed with Philadelphia, wrapped in bacon or parma ham and oven cooked with roasted veggies and rice.
Shrimp with lemon and garlic served in rice or pasta.
Oven roasted salmon with couscous and red peppers.

Beef curry. Not one of my best, too watery and the flavour is somewhat middle of the road.
The water problem is easily solved by boiling some potato slices in the sauce, and then roasting in the oven to make some damn tasty spicy potato wedges

To be honest there isn't much difference between yorkshire pudding batter and pancake batter, but a lot of difference between the end products.
If you don't mind me asking, what's with all the foods fried-on-a-stick over your side of the pond? it seems like every foodstuff imaginable ends up being available fried-on-a-stick over there.
I understand the technical advantages, of stick-mounted foodstuffs, but just don't understand the need to fry and impale every last edible substance...
As for my dinner, fajitas.

Most of the, "Foods on stick" stuff evolved out of the carnival and fair scene. Where we needed to be able to enjoy something while walking around. Stick mounted food allowed carnival goers to walk from attraction to attraction without ever stopping to eat, frying it gave you a crispy outside but moist inside, which incidentally is a great combination for cooking, too bad we found out that all that oil was a bad thing lol. And frying the foods took infinitely less time and space than baking them in an oven.

A savoury pudding made from a batter of eggs, plain flour, milk and a little salt, baked in a little oil. They go well as a side for a roast dinner.
