Update: Waffletown USA has relocated. The new address has been updated at the bottom of this post.
The problem with people is that we tend to take things for granted. We started feeling sorry for ourselves when we realized we are going to lose something dear to our hearts.
When news broke earlier this week that Waffletown USA is going to shutter their doors for good sometime this month (18th May), a piece of me died inside.
I kind of agree with this line that I read somewhere: "We whine about a favorite place closing. When it is finally closed, we clamor to have it back but the moment it does, we visit only once and never return again".
I am quite guilty of this myself. My last visit to Waffletown USA was in fact five years back and I have not done so since then.
However, to prove that I am still a die-hard fan, I decided to have one last meal here for memory's sake.
I thought I was being smart by coming early to beat the queue but what I did not expect was that opening hour has been delayed by sixty minutes later than usual. By then, more people have arrived and I had to stand in line for almost an hour before it reached my turn to order.
I ordered three items: two piece chicken meal ($8.30), waffle ala-mode with blueberries and rum & raisin ice cream ($6.50) and fish burger ($3.50).
There is table service here so take a seat after placing your order and someone will send the order to your table.
