Awww, my old neighborhood Awful Waffle. Waffle House is one of the best places to go late night, especially after a night of adult beverages.

I once dated a guy who thought it was normal to eat here sober, on a regular basis, this was not OK.

Waffles are good - especially with pecans, great grilled cheese, and of course the hash browns. Make mine a double, scattered well, and smothered. Be sure to check out the jukebox when your there and play all the Waffle House original songs. Hells yeah!

When I did my research for writing this review, the Waffle House website directed me to the application for a management position at an Ohio Waffle House. I believe that this was THE sign for me to quit my job in payroll and move ship a few states over so that I can boss some older ladies with attitudes around while eating free pancakes on my breaks.

In 2004 three friends and I got into my Honda Civic coupe at 2 in the morning and left for Dayton, Ohio. We were leaving from Poughkeepsie, NY for one reason - to see the band Guided By Voices in their hometown. The show was that night and the plan was to drive to Dayton, see the show, sleep in a hotel and then drive the 11 hours back to NY the next morning so we could all be at work later that day. When we got to one of our friend's houses we found him passed out on his family's porch swing and, when he got up, we could hear the empty beer cans hitting the ground. He had decided not to sleep after work (he had been up for over a day at that point) and, instead, got stoned and incredibly drunk. That friend spent the majority of the first part of the trip staring out the back window, babbling on and on about how he NEEDED to see the sun rise because he had seen the sun set earlier. About 20 minutes before it happened he fell asleep. Another one of the friends admitted about 4 hours into the drive that he had a massive amount of pot in his backpack. That friend also got really drunk on vodka and Red Bulls before the show (we thought it was a good idea) and ended up wandering out of the venue while GBV was playing and threw up on a cop car (with two police officers in it.) Did I mention that this friend was definitely not 21 at the time and I definitely had been for awhile? NOW I WILL TELL YOU ABOUT THE WAFFLE HOUSE.

The Waffle House was perfect. We smoked a lot of cigarettes while eating perfectly cooked everything. This Waffle House made me believe for a few minutes that Ohio was heaven on earth, which is obviously complete bullshit. While we were enjoying our meal the friend with the pot and the huge hangover was throwing up on the sidewalk outside of the Walmart across the parking lot.

That trip not only ruled, it proved that you can squeeze 4 adults into a two door import and comfortably drive a total of 22 hours in a day and a half.
