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 don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

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:

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.

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:
