I don't understand why people shit on Waffle House.

Where else can you go where someone will cook real eggs right in front of you, and cook them correctly?

Fried over easy, perfect every time.

[-] AlecSadler@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 hours ago

I've never been to one as there are none near me. They cook in front of you hibachi style?

[-] pachrist@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Sort of. They're just on the other side of a waist high divider. They aren't cooking for show, but you can see what they're doing.

[-] lengau@midwest.social 2 points 3 hours ago

I've been to many diners that do that consistently better than Waffle House.

[-] pachrist@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

The dividing line I have found is if the diner does really good biscuits. If the biscuits are good, they're generally better than Waffle House. But most diner type places near me are awful. They cater toward the 75+ crowd. Weak coffee and bland, nasty food. It's either mush, or dry as hell.

Thank god they don’t dump mayo— I mean, “yum yum sauce” — on everything at Waffle House

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 hours ago

That sauce is fucking delicious and I will NOT stand for it being slandered in this fashion

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

I agree but it is pink mayo.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 10 hours ago

I thought the whole point of hibachi was that they do it right in front of you and maybe even put on a show. Do the cooks at Waffle House even know how to make an onion volcano?

[-] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 7 hours ago

The show is usually a restaurant-wide brawl. You even get to participate in it if you want.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 0 points 10 hours ago

Haha who knows?

[-] nsnitko@infosec.pub 37 points 15 hours ago

Or, hibachi is just bougie Waffle House.

Electric bougie waffle house ..... many of them are also gas bougie waffle house

Eh? Whoever made this either went to a unique one or don't know what they're talking about.

Waffle Houses are not spectacles. They're as basic as they come. Basic seating. A gal who calls you "suga" and a mute cook who doesn't give you eye contact. You might be able to see the grill if you're sitting at the bar. But that's like saying you can see the grill at your McDonald's.

People go there because you can get a cheap breakfast for like $3.18 cents.

It's not good. It's not bad. It's not anything.

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

That food is just fine and partially sustained my life for years. Double order of hashbrowns crispy with onion and chili. That's all you need for a day and it's cheap and good.

[-] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 11 points 10 hours ago

Anywhere where you can get a meal for $3.18 in 2024 is good in my book

Jokes need to make sense, this doesn't.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 0 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Joke aside, I don't want a tourist to end up in Waffle House because of misinterpreting the meme and end up stabbed trying to convince the coked up cook to do a little show.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 25 points 16 hours ago

My favorite time was on the road with some friends (we're all from up in them thar mountains, so it's not like we were a bunch of New Yorkers) and 5/6 of us could not for the life of us understand our waitress, and we thought she might be speaking a foreign language, until one of our number, who was fluent in the Waffle House dialect of gibberish, translated for us.

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago
[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

Absolutely. We're pretty sure she was shooting up between waffles, but we all knew when walking out that it could've gone MUCH weirder.

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Ok so me (bald white man) and my boy (Puerto Rican, braids), were eating at a waffle House beside our hotel late. The two waitresses came up, very young, and said are you the movie guys?

We're like what?

One of them said yeah you're staying at the hotel, we make a movie and get paid. We tipped and dipped.

[-] stinky@redlemmy.com 14 points 15 hours ago

no one on earth

fucks better

than waffle house waitresses

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

I really like you. Not as much as a wavvenhaus hure.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 16 points 15 hours ago

the secret ingredient is meth

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 14 hours ago

For the patron or the waitress?

[-] LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 3 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

¿Por qué no los dos?

It's also how you know to evacuate in the south. Until waffle house closes you're ok.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Also a measure of damage done.

[-] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 3 points 13 hours ago

This is fondue raclette in French Canada.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

A winery near me does a raclette weekend for Valentine's Day where you get a plate of raclette with a glass of wine.

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

There's a restaurant in NYC, or at least there was, where they serve you some basic meat and potatoes then scrape a pound of raclette on your plate. It was delicious. Name of the place? "Raclette"

[-] Know_not_Scotty_does@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

I bought a bigass camp chef griddle for our back yard based on waffle house and japanese hibachi and it is completely worth it.

[-] pachrist@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

Same. Cooking 4 pounds of bacon at once is wild.

[-] Doom@ttrpg.network 3 points 14 hours ago

it's just a flattop gang

[-] stinky@redlemmy.com 3 points 15 hours ago

I am starving

[-] CheeryLBottom@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

Mmmm, hash browns
