I did some research on the truck beforehand and knew that they had an item on their menu called the Fried Chicken and Waffle. I've been aware of the chicken and waffles trend for quite some time but can honestly say that I've never tried this combination for myself. I'm not sure why but I'm guessing it just didn't peak my interest when I first heard about it back in college. After I saw this item at the top of their menu and read some of the reviews online, I figured it was finally time to give this a try. This appears to be one of the most popular items on their menu because the next three people to arrive ordered it as well. While $12.00 seemed a little pricey at the time, the size of their portions makes it all worth it.
I think I waited about 10 to 15 minutes for my food, but there were a few other people waiting ahead of me so it didn't seem like that long. When I sat down to eat, I was very impressed with the presentation. On top of the waffle were fried chicken thighs glazed with chili honey. On top of that was a pile of coleslaw and pickled jalapeños. Chicken and waffles was interesting enough but coleslaw and jalapeños take it to the next level. I've been told the best way to eat chicken and waffles is to make sure you're combining the two with each bite. The waffle was light and fluffy, just like a waffle should be, but the chicken was what really blew me away. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the perfect combination of sweet and savory when you factor in the chili honey. Combine this with the coleslaw and jalapeños and you've got yourself a very interesting combination.
Foolish Waffles is not afraid to be unique, and looking at their menu will give you an idea of what they're all about. If you like Italian food, the Hot Eye-Talian is likely right up your alley. If you like preparing cheese plates for social gatherings, check out Cheesus Take the Wheel. I know for a fact that I want to try the Tropical Delight because the description reminds me of a tropical vacation, something we all need in the middle of winter. They have a few "create your own" options as well where you can order waffles with any number of sweet toppings.
