1. I don't want my waffles fried.
And I don't eat dead bird parts.

3. The waffles aren't fried, silly
just the dead bird parts. And give it time. The East Bay is another chicken 'n' waffles hotbed, and I'll bet Flaco's vegan taqueria (!) in Berkeley (of course :-) ), which makes a mean faux chicken, would try it!

7. We should probably keep it quiet or the next state fair's going to have damn deep fried waffles.
They're pretty close to the ultimate goal - deep fried deep fry fat on a stick.

2. Well
Given their location, that'll be about the 12th of Never. But, at least it sounds like real waffles! (Insert Waffle House grumble)

4. My heart just stopped.
Roscoe's is still around?

6. The best chicken and waffles...

9. Peanut butter and Concord grape jelly on a toasted onion bagel.
One of my favorites for breakfast. Sounds strange, but tastes great. Alas, the bagel needs to be dripping in melted butter, too, real butter.

Edited on Tue Jul-26-11 01:52 PM by u4ic
cocoa, avocado, agave syrup (or honey) and vanilla flavouring. Blend in food processor until smooth. Delish.

Really? I want to try that.
Is this real? Please give me an idea of how you do this.

I love tripe, but never tried grilling it.

26. Yeah, it's great
You have to start with fresh honeycomb tripe. I buy it as "menudo panal" at a Mexican grocery store. Barbecuing trpe is similar to barbecuing squid in that there is a small window of time to get it just right. Take it off too soon and it is on the mushy side, leave it on too long and it becomes a bicycle tire.

I marinade it in a little soy sauce, sesame oil and black pepper before it hits the grill. After it comes off I glaze it with a mixture of molasses, habanero and garlic.

I use Thai jasmine rice and kimchi as a side dish.

31. I've lived in L.A. for 23 years and I can't believe I've never gone
to Roscoes. I've always wanted to. I love unusual combinations of food so it's going on my to do list.
