This will be weird, but DO PEOPLE SERVE POTATOES with WAFFLES? Is there a way to do this so that it works? I saw a photo that I THOUGHT were potatoes, but now I think it wasn't but it appeared to be at a "fast glance"
What say you?

OK, that is ugly food. I wouldn't eat that for breakfast OR dinner. Sorry.The chicken and waffles thing goes way back. It was an African American (soul food) specialty, after going out all night they would stop in at a diner and it would be "some wanted breakfast and some wanted dinner" so the whole chicken and waffles conglomeration.
I in fact, mentioned to DH just recently, MAYBE I SHOULD MAKE IT! With this whole influx of people saying "I don't eat red meat" voila HERE IS YOUR WAFFLE AND YOUR FRIED CHICKEN! The waffle absorbs the grease, like how people sometimes eat fried chicken with a piece of white bread.
I know I may be getting all southuhn on you now, but that is WHY that restaurant is advertising that. Probably originated from the old gin joints and jazz and people going out to eat afterward. We have a very popular chicken and waffles place downtown, everyone loves it! here is the one in Roanoke VA http://www.thelmaschickenandwaffles.biz/

Bread + eggs + potatoes is kind of standard fare. Its the sweet waffle that's throwing me off!Um, I don't - like the pp'er, I think it's too much starch.
BUT - one morning (I don't know what I was thinking) I served those eggs-in-a-cloud on sourdough with roasted potatoes as a side. Really? No way! (that was me talking to myself) Thick slab of bread and potatoes. But...they all ate it all, so ymmv, I guess. I haven't done it again, tho..
I don't see potatoes, I see butter melting on the waffle and a bowl of grits in the background.
If I were served that breakfast I would eat every bite! Dang I'm hungry for grits now....
No no potatoes in that photo, another I saw.Don Draper said:I don't see potatoes, I see butter melting on the waffle and a bowl of grits in the background.
