I *heart* the waffle house. While I generally eschew chain restaurants, the sheer crapitude of these places draws me in, every time. And every time, its for the same thing: Order of Hashbrowns, scattered ALL THE WAY.

I live in the Phoenix area and LOVE the waffle house. LOVE IT! Sure, the crowd scares the hell out of me half the time I am there, but where else can you get two eggs, two pieces of toast, hashbrowns and a waffle for less than 4 bucks?

If any one is going to Carlisle PA this weekend for the GM nationals there is one there.

Assuming Clunkbucket HQ is near Los Angeles, it might be reassuring to know that tasty Wafflehouse goodness is a mere weekend trip away in Phoenix. Of course, I tend to avoid them after dark in metro areas, as they are something of a haven for the angry drunks (happy drunks end up at Dennys, imo).

I’ve had many good times chatting over a solid breakfast at Wafflehouse with friends in the morning. You got your waffles, crispy bacon, scrambled eggs, and a giant glass of ice cold OJ. It makes for a great morning. Then you have those nights where you watch as one drunk POS outside thinks drunk POS inside is talking to him and begins banging on the window in a rage. Fortunately, the police show up just as he reaches for the shotgun in his truck.

Makes me wish we had Bob Evans here in Arizona…

Don’t need to head South. We had Waffle Houses in Ohio, and I’m pretty sure there’s some in Pennsylvania.

A fine southern road trip tradition!

Did you ever notice, the Waffle House is always on the right side of the road?

Just watch out playing those Waffle House songs on the jukebox… a surly waitress once threatened bodily harm because we kept plugging “Special Lady at the Waffle House” and “It’s Waffle House Time” on the jukebox, along with a half-dozen other such gems.

The Waffle House is one of the sublime joys of traveling in the south. Since everything on the menu comes with grits on the side, it’s easy to learn to like grits.
