Over Christmas break I was talking to my 11-year-old brother
about what our ideal meals would be. He
told me his was a waffle with a bacon and cheese omelette on top of it with
more bacon, syrup and whipped cream on top of that. After he told me I came to the conclusion
that 11-year-old boys are strange because nothing could sound worse than mixing
sweet like a waffle and syrup with something as hearty as eggs.
Fast-forward to present day. It’s Friday and I am sitting at Station 22 with my
friends browsing the menu wondering what they have that I have never tried
before. Then I find it, chicken and
waffles. Reading the description I have
a flash back to my conversation with my little brother. The description read “Our famous fried chicken served on
a sugar waffle, topped with candied bacon, maple-walnut butter and fried sage.” Now I was thinking not only are 11 year olds
strange but also so are Southerners. Like could that be a more random
combination?
Long story short I ended up
ordering the chicken and waffles and I really liked it! I learned that maybe
11-year-olds and southerners aren’t so strange after all. The dish kind of tasted like caramelized
bread with chicken, which wasn’t my favorite, but I wouldn’t be opposed to ordering
it again. I am glad I got out of my comfort zone and tried a new food.
I think I've been to that same place once when I was being recruited for summer sales. Is it near the town center in Provo? I thought it was pretty good, too. A little weird to wrap my mind around, but good though.
