I dont know that I would. I think I would just send people to local places, you know?
If they are in Seattle and just really want fast food then absolutely go to Dicks.

If you want some great chicken and waffles hit up Ledger in Salem for Brunch.

At least around here, it is mainly popular because it is open after the bars close and it's good sop up the alcohol food. I think that's why they go in that Bourdain clip. Always thought it was weird he went around with Sean Brock when he isn't a local at all. He was definitely pretty trashed in that scene. I think he went to rehab and cleaned up not much later.

Never heard of those. Is this what they are? San Antonio Beef Puffy Tacos
Also, does this thread offer curbside pickup or delivery?

Waffle House is shit food. But it’s also great. All day breakfast on the cheap. It’s not a place to go to have a great meal. It’s a place to go for a cheap, quick, familiar meal that serves its purpose well.

Yeah, and I don't want to sound judgemental, but I would be more likely to go somewhere that has a strong reputation and is a bit more contemporary and higher quality. I would want to go to a restaurant like 'Gram and Dun' in Missouri and I wouldn't mind going there twice, like if it's amazing the first time, I'd go back and order completely different stuff! Or somewhere casual like Dame's Chicken and Waffles or Brown Sugar Kitchen in Oakland. or Connie's Chicken & Waffles. Like I'd still go for something more fancy like Gram and Dun, but am happy to try other casual, great restaurants!
Waffle House looks good, but there's so many other great places, that I don't know if I would go there because I love food and I'm a little bit fancy!
Like, I'll travel anywhere, like I've been to Afghanistan, refugee camps in Palestine, slums in India, trekking in Uganda etc - like I'm not a total comfort snob if you know what I mean. But I always do my research with food and yes, sometimes the cheaper, more basic places have the better food (I'll go there too, especially if the locals say it's the best). But I just would go to the more fancy strongly rated places for waffles because there's so many options and why not if I have the money!

but where is the steak at tho?looks pretty tasty tho that bottom dish being a mix of veggie and fruit would send me to the restroom pretty quickly.
I can attest to the fact that vegetarians are very “regular” people. But I fear we are getting off-thread.

Go to Waffle House after a night of drinking to soak up booze. Not for a meal you’ll remember and tell your friends about.Yeah, and I don't want to sound judgemental, but I would be more likely to go somewhere that has a strong reputation and is a bit more contemporary and higher quality.

Can we move these multi-paged conversations about food to the VMP-related forums where they belong, please?

I definitely wouldn't go to Waffle House then. I understand why people would love it because it's very unpretentious, cheap, 24-7, nostalgic etc, but you said it's 'shit food'. So screw that! I'm going to somewhere like Gram and Dun or Red Rooster or even somewhere just more trendy and chilled like Funk 'N Waffles!

To be fair, I also call myself "Lord Diaper Baby" so just 'cause I say it's shit food shouldn't turn you away. I also use that term lovingly. Like, I know what it is and I accept it in all its dumpster fire glory. But I still go there from time-to-time (when I'm in a region of the country that has them; Las Vegas does not have them).
Chicken and waffles is a fabulous combo - famous place or otherwise.

lol is this place well known or something? If you come to Kansas City I can give you a hundred places better than Gram & Dun.

Nah, I was kidding! Please carry on.Sorry, that was my bad! No more food convos from me!
Best chicken and waffles I’ve had were at the Goody Goody Diner in St Louis when I used to live there.

It's all Walmart's and Cracker Barrel's fault because they do vinyl exclusives and it's so ewwww and unclassy and worst fashion taste aesthetic when it comes to vinyl exclusives!
Like even for me Target and Urban Outfitters and are cheap because they aren't vinyl focused companies and they Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan exclusives, and just such mainstream generic titles. But Walmart and Cracker Barrell is next level like "what is this?" And that's why the conversation got out of control! Because it's just like ewww, no thanks!

I am originally from a town not to far from Chicago and have no clue what that is. That being said, I would not be surprised if it was a thing and that it was delicious.
