I was reading this month’s issue of Details magazine and they had a story titled “Breakfast in America” where they list all these high end breakfast places around the USA. The every end they have a sidebar section titled “The Ultimate Classic: Waffle House”. They proceed to list American chefs from some high end restaurants that eat at the Waffle House. Here is part of that list.
David Myers – The Hungry Cat and Sona, Los Angeles – “Eggs over easy with grits and hash browns scattered, smothered, and covered.”
Dean Fearin – Fearing’s, Dallas – “Eggs over easy with bacon, extra-buttery grits, and a side of extra-crispy buttermilk waffles with extra butter and syrup.”
Kevin Rathbun – Rathbun’s and Kevin Rathbun Steak, Atlanta – “Double hash browns double-covered with onions and cheese and topped with two eggs over easy with chili on top.”

I, too, love the waffle house.
