Chicken N' Waffles - Day 28

Although we wanted to make a stop at the (in)famous Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles in Long Beach (where they shot the restaurant scenes in Pulp Fiction), we thought it would be more practical to check out one of the closer branches, ie: Central LA.

I personally have never enjoyed chicken AND waffles simultaneously, (despite chicken and waffles both being delicious and satisfying), but finally the opportunity presented itself, and I was able to indulge. This is something I probably won't be doing again for a long while though.

You'll notice in the picture, in the center of the table, between two giant waffles, sits some kind of mound 'o' gravy, drenching a very moist meat product. That's a chicken under there. Wait, that's not entirely true. That giant mound is actually one FOURTH of a chicken. Yes, we got the small portion (I wonder aloud what kind of giant turkey sized chickens do they have back there?!) I glanced 'round at other dining customers, and realized why they offer enormo-chickens. The people here were pretty big. And we are pretty small. Comparatively.

Well, we continued to devour as much as we could of our gourmet meal, which admittedly tasted way better than it looked (glad the lighting was dim). But saying I was simply full after finishing what I could of our meal, would be an understatement. However, despite the hideous sight of our food, and the damage done to your body from eating it, I would have to recommend it, at least once in your life. It was cheap, tasty, and there was decent parking, AND it's CHICKEN AND WAFFLES! C'mon!



We're still asking forgiveness from our arteries.
