Had this delicious combination for the very first time two days ago. Surprisingly many of my friends had never heard of or had never tried it.
I thought it was great! It's basically like chicken nuggets with honey dip, except they serve it with maple syrup instead of honey.
This dish is sort of sweet but not really oozing with sweetness. My order came with a side of bacon flavored grits and two eggs. Everything went well together.
Recommended if you have never tried it.
Oh, I love chicken and waffles. Los Angeles has the famous Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles. Love the stuff. Not good for my cholesterol or fitness goals, but once in a while it's nice to indulge in this delicious sin. I'm not in L.A. anymore, sadly, so I miss that place. I'll have to make chicken and waffles at home one of these days. It's just not the same as going to a chicken and waffles joint, however.
Roscoe's is famous to the L.A. partying crowd as it's open late and a great place to soak up the booze.
I went to Gladys Knight's Chicken and Waffles in Atlanta. Excellent stuff. I'm sold on it.

I saw that place on the TV show MAN VS FOOD. It does look good! :smile:
I would love it if my one horse town got that. We have like 4000 pizza places and nothign else.
Looks pretty healthy. Does it come with a stent?

It's not something I would recommend every morning but its great for a casual brunch-like get together.
My serving didn't appear to be all that "fatty" though. The two breaded chicken tenders were baked in the oven and the waffle wasn't infused with buttermilk, blueberries or bacon. The only thing rich was the piece of butter on the waffle, and the maple syrup of course.

Oh wow. You whacky Americans and your odd eating habits :teddyr:
It might be delicious but I could feel my arteries hardening just looking at the photo! :buggedout:
And can someone tell me what grits are?
Grits are a kind of ground maize porridge, I believe: something somewhat similar to our own "pap" [ground maize porridge] here in South Africa. [Tummy rumbles from Trevor :wink:]
I've heard of Chicken and Waffles, but I've never had it. I can't imagine it tasting good. But I did dip fried chicken in chocolate once and it was surprisingly not gross.

Pretty much spot on. Here's what wikki has to say about grits: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grits

Girits are delicious...basically white polenta. And coming from the land of the pie floater and vegemite. I don't think you have much high ground.
Disclaimer- I dream of trying my first floater. I so want to see Australia.

I like chicken. I like waffles.
I'm not sure about their combination, though.
None of y'all would have chicken if waffles if Black Dynamite hadn't shot up Roscoe's "Chilli and Doughnuts".

Ed, you are so right. We have our own weirdo food things we eat. I dont indulge in them either as much as I'd like to.
You are very welcome to come visit us and gorge yourself silly on our cuisine. We'd love to have you. :cheers:
Thanks to this thread, I ordered chicken and waffles yesterday. Second time I've had them in my life. An average of once every 20 years sounds about right. :wink:
Guess who is serving chicken & waffles now?

HAH! I saw a billboard for that on my way to work this morning. I thought, "hey there was that thread on badmovies.org. Anybody stateside who wants to try it now can. There are no chicken and waffle joints in Phoenix that I know about so I may have to head over to IHOP, there's one just around the corner.

I find a slight irony with IHOP serving it. I don't know suppose the whole Waffle House thing has me thinking it. I'm off, sleep calls.
Delicious. I made that for myself about a month ago.
I've had garlic bread with pancakes. Call me weird.
Living in the land of poutine, I don't suppose I can criticize chicken and waffles. I just have a hard time imagining how anyone thought to put them together. The combination just doesn't sound like it would taste as good as it apparently does. Now I'm kind of intrigued. I don't think any place around here offers chicken and waffles on the menu, but I know where I can likely get the two put together. Can't do it at home, because I don't have a waffle iron, and I don't think Eggos would be good enough.
Really, with the maple syrup component, I'm surprised Canadians haven't embraced chicken and waffles yet. Is it more of a breakfast food, dinner or anytime food?
Mmmmm, all this talk of regional delicacies has put me in the mood for poutine.

And it's cousin, Newfoundland fries. French fries, stuffing, fried onions, cheese curds, peas and gravy. Oh, baby. I know what I'm making for dinner tonight. :teddyr:

When I lived in the city, there were a couple of chip trucks owned by transplanted Newfies who made this. In the summer, we'd drive across the city just to eat it. Well, I'd eat it. My wife preferred the fish and chips.

from wikki:
QuoteA commonly quoted story is that the Wells Supper Club started selling the chicken and waffles dish to late-night patrons of their club in 1938 "as it was too late for dinner, and too early for breakfast"; so Wells Supper Club served both dishes on the one plate.
If anything, I'd say its ideal brunch food if you add the whole works (grits)

I've had pizza and waffles but never chicken and waffles. I never knew a place that served it. But if it's out at the IHOP........

I can't comment on origins but fried chicken lends itself to syrups. I enjoy honey with mine religiously and would imagine maple syrup would be an excellent addition. There is something about a very sweet sauce that is addictive with fried chicken.

Ewww... That makes me want to puke.
I've never had poutine and no offense, it doesn't look very appetizing. I would still try it I guess.

That picture wasn't poutine, it was Newfoundland fries, and I agree they don't look as good as they taste. Poutine is just fries, cheese curds and gravy (and occasionally stuff like bacon or even donair meat in some places).

It's yummy! :thumbup:
And what Andy just now said: it tastes far better than it looks. I'm sure Newfoundland fries do, too.
Darn. Now I'm hungry.
