I needed to brace myself before heading out to a giant kids
consignment sale. So, I took myself to Waffle House for brunch. I ordered a pecan waffle, grits, and scattered smothered, and topped hash browns (covered with onions and chili). I managed to eat about half of this. If loving Waffle House is wrong, I don't want to be right. Tara |

My experience with pancake/waffle restaurants is that their pancakes and waffles usually suck big time. We stopped at a pancake restaurant (not a chain) a couple years ago and I swore I would never got to another. But... last week I had to go for a fasting blood test and stopped at a local restaurant for breakfast. After reviewing the menu opted for the one that came with pancakes. I figured there was enough on it that if the pancakes were bad I would still have enough. I have to say they were pretty good. They would have been better with real maple syrup, but even their artificial syrup was better than the specialty joint. |

Was traveling to the Grand Canyon about 15 years ago and was pretty late and on the western side of Arkansas. Waffle House was about the only thing open and we were starrrrrrrrving. Those hashbrowns and that patty melt was mighty fine, mighty fine. |

There's the menu! I didn't see it when I looked. Waffle House is handy when you want a hamburger at 8AM in the morning. I don't particularly do "breakfast foods" and after working all night sometimes we go out to get a bite. I have to go to Huddle House on those days I'm in the mood for french fries to dip in ketchup though as Waffle House doesn't offer fries. Just hashbrowns. |

Maybe they're just too lazy to post nutrition info, and/or they figure their customers are mostly slobs who don't care what they put into their bodies. --Bryan |

Waffle/Huddle Houses and IHOP are garbage food restaurants. At least IHOP admits they still use partially hydrogenated fats. It saves them a few pennies, and they figure that anyone who eats there has low standards anyway. --Bryan |

We traveled to Coos Bay, Oregon to visit a friend who was there for a family reunion. We ate at a place that I think was called Pancake Mill. I had pancakes. They all had waffles. We all agreed that they were the best we had ever had. And their bacon was the best also. I hope my friend has a reunion there again sometime. |

You certainly have become a grown up. And you know what I always say is the difference between a grown up and an adult, doncha?

We have a IHOP over here but the waffles disappoints because they don't really care about the product. I don't even know if they care about pancakes.

Why not make some? They are easy enough.... if you have a waffle iron. There are lots of variations on the basic recipes but they are basically a pancake, improved by separating the eggs beating the whites and fold them into the batter. I have never had waffles anywhere near as good as the waffles we cook at home. |

The way I used to make them is to invert the waffle iron, pour in the batter, and then flip the iron over. This can be done with any electric iron. I used to add some rice flour to lighten the waffles. Now I gotta look for that iron... |

That jsut starts it cooking on top instead of the bottom, and risks slopping batter all over. Waffles are a funny thing. Everyone seems to like them and lots of people have waffle irons. We have them about once a month, but I don't personally know anyone who makes them. |
