I miss Waffle House. The nearest one to me is about 1400 miles. A bit too far for a diner breakfast.
Youtube links please. I picture like southern bell blue eyes blond hair taylor swifts?without question.
As to the last part, Wal-Mart is everywhere. It makes no difference.

Taylor Swifts? lol. She can go back to Canada or wherethefuckever. She ain't the south.
Bro.
I frequently brunch at mid-high end places on the weekend. I'm all about that Benedict and mimosa life. Free range, grass-fed, locally sourced; all that bullshit; I'm a basic bitch at my core.
I also am not above admitting that a low-cost, low-effort, greasy-ass plate of hash-browns, eggs, and a bullshit waffle isn't just as delicious on certain occasions.
Voluntarily opting for lower quality food served in a dirty restaurant is entirely up to you - like I said, if that's your thing, fine. But I don't think you're convincing anyone that Waffle House is something other than the lowest common denominator as far as breakfast goes. I'm not arguing anyone's cravings for grease, you get that right?
I went to college, I've had my rough mornings too, where breakfast is the only choice that everyone agrees on, and there is no Great Eggspectation or private place available. I just prefer to have it at places where I don't think hepatitis is on the menu, or the bathroom looks like a crime scene. When I said earlier I've been to Waffle Houses that were hideous, that's not hyperbole. That happening once, I can write off. That happening twice I can write off. That being the case in multiple restaurants in 6 states? Taking my business elsewhere.
How can I see the full segment?
[edit]
Watching this right now:
Found the full segment on YouTube, but audio is manipulated:This episode of Parts Unknown is actually on Netlfix as well. One of my favorite episodes from the last couple of years.
Who is "Keller?"Seen it, and it still makes me laugh when he say's "better than the French Laundry." I bet that pissed Keller off. When you're as cool as Bourdain you're allowed to be wrong every now and then - eating durian for instance.
Whoa. A testament to just how bad things are now down on the panhandle. Waffle House in Panama City (one I've been to no less) actually closed. There's a no bueno sign for you.
Edit: Now seeing 18 locations closed!

What's the story on durian? Man! I was in Thailand last year while they were going insane for the durian harvest. That stuff is effing nasty, but it's very popular through most of Asia. I nibbled a durian sugar wafer once. Small burps still smelled like poop for hours. The 3 different airports I saw in Thailand and 2 different airports in Japan all had warnings everywhere indicating that durian on the plane is not tolerated. The same warnings they have against firearms and Galaxy Note 7. Serious business. I hear of many durian airplane incidents involving travelers and tourists from mainland China.

Searching Google for "Bourdain durian" led me to an old Anandtech thread:

Yeah wondered how hammered those two were when this was filmed. I'm sure that waffle tasted great at the time. Then again, they probably could have put that substitute butter and syrup on a flip flop and they would have raved about it as well.
As a kid, all I ate was fake syrup and margarine. That's what my parents bought so I never had the real stuff until I was on my own. I agree the real stuff is way better but I'm not so stuck up that I won't eat the fake stuff now and then when it's offered to me. I've been known to buy Parkay butter to add to my BBQ smoked pork ribs and add MSG to my rubs.Call me elitist but I've never liked fake syrup, even as a kid. The real stuff is so good I use it as a sweetener for drinks and all kinds of other food.

"Researchers found real maple syrup — the kind that comes from the sap of a maple tree — helps prevent two types of proteins found in brain cells from clumping together. When these cellular proteins, beta amyloid and tau peptide, improperly accumulate together, plaque is formed in the brain, causing Alzheimer’s and other brain diseases.
And if that news wasn’t sweet enough, scientists found that maple syrup extract also could prolong Alzheimer’s patients lifespans by protecting the brain cells from fibrillating, or clumping together. Maple syrup keeps beta-amyloid from sticking together or becoming tangled, the scientists found."
Suck it HFCS.
What constitutes fake syrup?
Is Mrs. Butterworth's fake syrup? *snipped*
Aha, gotta try that. Always have pecans in the freezer and my waffle iron stands sentry in the cabinet. I keep a blend of waffle starter in a bottle above the stove (contains powdered eggs, NFDM powder, baking soda, salt)... to 0.9 ounces of that that I add 4 ounces water, flour (50-50 whole wheat and white, 1.25 ounces of each). I can have a waffle ready to eat in less than 15 minutes.Pecan waffle > *
Hard to mess up hash browns. Took me years to figure out how to do it in the kitchen. The secret is to cook (and cool) the potato before you grate it. Or to buy the frozen ones, I suppose, but I never do that.Things I know at Waffle House that are good and impossible to mess up. Pecan waffle, Texas patty melt, hashbrown, All Star Special. Stick to those and you'll be safe.
