You guys are adorable! It is probably the owner's child. There are labor laws in the United states. It would be highly illegal. But children are allowed to work at family owned businesses. Because they're not really employees.

[@blakethomas8897]

Oh no! Next time order a regular waffle, cut it in 4 while it is still hot, spread a little butter on each quarter, take the sausage patties and place them on 2 of the waffles, pour syrup and cover the top with the remaining waffle. That's a waffle sandwich. Eat with a knife if you wish. Also at lunch time, try the chili. I was surprised how good it was. Thank you for the video! Good childhood memories at the Waffle House

[@marcpaloma2262]

With all due respect, if you aren’t going to add butter and syrup to your waffle (like a typical American), don’t even bother. Stop triggering me! 😂

[@vodriscoll]

I totally agree. I would never eat a waffle without butter and a lot of syrup. Joel barely put any syrup on.

[@justpeachy2809]

I know! It was so hard to watch them! And picking it up with her fingers! If it had the proper amount of butter snd syrup one would not want to pick it up. 🤣

[@johnstark1985ify]

Agree and they should have eaten them first so they were Warm and the butter would have melted.I wouldn’t have liked them cold ether.

[@crinkle2649]

Exactly!!! You said what we were all thinking 😄

[@courtneyperry82]

They pretty much wasted my time with this one. I have no clue as to why they wouldn't eat the waffle with butter and syrup. That's like eating fried chicken without Texas Pete but then again I digress.

Used to be a tradition to leave the bar when it closes at 2am and we’d all go to Waffle House. The waiters and cooks there are saints for putting up with all of drunk folks constantly.

[@vaopr1012]

It’s impossible to have a true Waffle House experience sober and before 2 am.

[@davidcosta2244]

Drunks usually tip exceptionally well, or not at all, so it behooves them to treat the drunks well so they get the tips from the drunks that do tip.

Waffles American style: Ladle on butter and watch it melt on the hot waffle, while adding so much maple syrup that it runs off the edges and forms a puddle on the plate under the waffle. See Joel triggered.

[@leehanson1416]

Whenever a major weather impact happens in the US - Tornado, hurricane, blizzard, etc - FEMA will try to figure out if the Waffle Houses in the affected area are open or not. If Waffle House is closed FEMA knows its really bad and they send in the support right away.

[@arnoldrivas4590]

Really? That's amazing! I now want to travel to the South just because of this. What's the food like in Waffle House? It looks like standard Americana. Or am I wrong?

[@stephenange8179]

Waffle house food is good, but where I live at least (Eastern North Carolina) it's more of a staple after a night out drinking. Then the good becomes great. You may see a fight or 2, sometimes amongst employees. At my local waffle house, during the summer usually, there's a cop that's posted there. Not joking. It's not that it's in a bad area, just more for public safety when all the drunk ppl pour in after last call lol!

[@comfeefort]

@@arnoldrivas4590 Very Standard! I would suggest a Patty Melt, (minced beef and cheese) Very typical of a Grill, like Waffle House

[@turquoisesellers8672]

The Waffle House index. I find it so interesting. I’m glad someone mentioned it.

[@katrinaprescott5911]

Part of the reason is that the majority of Waffle House locations are in the southeast and Midwest - hurricanes and tornadoes. They have a sophisticated disaster recovery infrastructure and are often the first place to eat to open for first responders. Part of the plan is they have a "no electricity" menu they can make using only the grill which is powered by natural gas.

[@KawaTony1964]

I just don't understand why you Brits are so averse to putting butter and syrup on waffles and pancakes. It's so delicious. That's all you got at Waffle House because in the US we pretty much don't put anything else on waffles and pancakes. And we would have the waffle floating in syrup and butter. Yumm.

[@QuincyDisneyVegan]

THANK YOU! MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!! 💯

[@comfeefort]

Eeeeeew! Joel picked the worst one, Chocolate? Perfect for a 5 Year old

[@lorrilewis2178]

The best thing is to have a bite or a waffle or pancake with maple syrup and then a bite of bacon. Sweet then savory. Repeat until finished.

[@saxonrains]

And for the love of all things holy put ketchup on those hash browns.

[@TickleMeElmo55]

Oh goodness! I put whip cream and even fruits on mine if I don't go the butter and syrup route!

[@marissacaldeira2098]

I don’t understand why you don’t ask the server how something should be eaten when you don’t understand what all the ingredients are for.

[@daphne0123]

the butter goes first on the waffle or pancake, followed by syrup. the butter keeps it from getting soggy when you put the syrup on

[@llib90630]

really? i just did so it would melt before the syrup was poured

[@wm3752]

That "child" you referred to who was "working" at that Waffle House you visited was most likely the daughter of one of the workers there- I used to bus tables and help wash dishes on the weekends at a restaurant that my dad cooked at...I wasn't on the payroll - the waitresses would tip me a cpl-a bucks and dad would throw me a cpl-a bones...I ended up becoming a cook and a waiter for 14 yrs- I'm glad my dad took me along- it was good experience and exposure to a work environment. .....P.S.- butter is an absolute MUST on waffles and pancakes- and you always eat them first- while they're hot.......

[@ceciliasims7374]

Children are usually the only ones who put chocolate chips on pancakes. Cold waffles with no butter and precious little syrup, eaten with fingers? No way any American adult eats this way.

[@bkm2797]

Lol Lia, the jam was for your toast, and you should place the butter on the waffle while it's hot, so when they first bring it to the table. Nothing as tasty as a pecan waffle with lots of melted butter and maple syrup. Thanks for taking us along.

[@raymondweaver8526]

Butter then jelly/jam on toast

[@tinahairston6383]

Not a fan of Waffle House but you really shouldn't wait to eat your waffles. They are never great unless they are hot and Joel...butter on your waffles is amazing!

[@kurtsaxton823]

Where I live if world war 3 broke out we would surround and protect the waffle houses before the state capitol.

[@david-1775]

Agreed. It is like eating the french fries last. Fries only have a few minutes of life where they shine.

[@emmaminton407]

waffle house is better when your either 1) drunk at 3am and hungry 2) hungover the next day 😂

💯💯💯

[@CG68810]

OMG you guys are like cavemen! LOL Hilarious...Watching you eat waffles is like someone who has lived in the wild all their life and then trying to teach them how to use utensils! LOL....Gotta love you guys. Joel you are a sweet tooth guy. This is your opportunity to smother your waffles in syrup. You guys can't be left to wander the States alone. You need an American to show you the ropes...Ha!

[@dalemoore8582]

But they "know everything" because they have watched American TV. Just ask Joel.

[@dailycharmaddict]

Hi Joel and Lia! We are Canadian and LOVE the Waffle House. We look forward to it on our drives to Florida so Joel, I'm surprised you have not been before. The people are always so friendly and the service is great. It's obviously short-order cooking and we appreciate that! I would definitely recommend ordering your hash browns scattered, smothered, and covered next time - makes them more interesting and it's fun to order! I adore the waffles with pecans, makes them richer and more complex. That is table syrup and most certainly NOT Canadian maple!! Just so you know! It's just a really sweet kind of restaurant that sometimes gets a bad rap or teasing, but as I said, we always leave happy and satisfied and that coffee is amazing after driving for several hours in the early morning! Tfs, such a cute video!

[@melindagordon5278]

Lia, I have a feeling you may never find a delicious cup of tea in the US. If I were you I would bring tea from home. You can still order a pot of hot water at any restaurant. Love you two brits! ❤

[@QuincyDisneyVegan]

🤣🤣🤣 Joel and Lia, ya gotta spread the butter and syrup on them waffles (and pancakes) to fully understand why we Americans love eating them that way! ALSO, if you add a chicken breast (or in my case "chicken" fried tofu) on top of waffle & syrup it's DELIGHTFUL because of the sweet & salty combination

[@Synapse928]

Pro Tip: The pockets on the waffles are made for melted butter! SMH, you silly Brits 😋

[@cinexploits]

I must say that the ONLY way to eat Waffle House hash browns is "scattered, smothered, and covered." Likewise, waffles are only to be eaten with plenty of melted butter and maple syrup. We'll educate you yet on proper etiquette for Waffle House! 😉👍

[@raymondweaver8526]

Scattered and splattered

[@pattpilgrim2168]

I have to have mine brown or crispy which ever!

[@cinexploits]

@@pattpilgrim2168 - That's the "scattered" on the grill part of the recipe. Then "smothered" with onions, and "covered" with cheese. ;)

[@bretcantwell4921]

I'm wondering why they didn't do any "erd" with the hash browns.

[@KaelynWillingham]

"Smothered, covered, capped, country" is the way to go.

[@carolgage4569]

Waffles, pancakes and French toast are meant to be eaten with lots of salted butter and a drizzles or two of maple syrup. This is much like scone etiquette-cream first, or jam-but both must be consumed! One wouldn’t eat a scone without it’s accoutrements! You cannot have waffles 🧇 dry!

[@odysseusrex5908]

Waffles, like pancakes, are meant to topped with lots of butter and lots of syrup.

[@jodybrackett9529]

I grew up not even 1 mile from this waffle house. My elementary school was across the road where the grocery store is. I am glad you guys have enjoyed my hometown and hope everyone was welcoming and generous to y'all. God Bless!

[@ClarkJ2265]

Y’all need to go to someone’s house and have them cook you a full American breakfast with pancakes and waffles etc and have them teach you how we eat them. Even Joel going to his family’s Florida vacation home hasn’t taught him either.

[@tangerine4665]

I love how Joel and Lia keep “messing up” all the food chain visits by ordering and eating wrong. I’m starting to think they are having a laugh about it just to trigger people. On the other hand, I would probably not now that you MUST put butter and syrup on it, and just eat it like that. Maybe ask for some Nutella, I don’t know 😂

[@ghostlyMostly1]

I keep thinking this too 😂 Like they say "What would the American's do?", And then do the opposite.

[@jadeh2699]

Well, everyone eats different things their own way, but these two do have a habit of changing the food up and then complaining about it! LOL!

[@amj4]

I keep thinking this too, and the fact that they don’t seem to know what the jelly is for, or the syrup, etc. Joel, your parents have a home in Florida and you all seem to go out to eat, wouldn’t you have figured it all out by now? 🤔

[@Tony36847]

I think you're right. They really need an American tour guide so they get the best experience. Also, Waffle House is full of old people cuz it's cheap af!

[@CarryTheZero1]

I like my eggs over medium. It's where the whites are completely cooked but yolks still runny.

[@angelasaunders3558]

Fun fact for you , Waffle House began in Georgia, where you can find one near every highway entrance/exit ( practically 😄) and there is a museum dedicated to the chain there near Decatur Georgia where I once lived. It's a nice place to go to every once in a while, and they tend to stay open 24 hours a day. You will see many older people simply due to the lower prices and often very friendly service. Some, depending where in the South they are located,I would probably not visit,but most are just fine for an inexpensive family restaurant.

[@joecalabria3472]

LOL, I almost choked when Joel dipped his sausage in ketchup🤢... Nooooooo!!! Need way more syrup on the waffle and then mop up the overspill with the sausage... YUM. A little syrup is terrific with your egg and especially the hash browns, too. Pancakes or waffles without butter and syrup should be illegal... actually might be in some states.🙃

[@blue9280]

At this point I wonder if they do this on purpose to trigger us 😭

[@reuben854]

It's a good technique. It elicits replies.

[@rendafranker7088]

Pecan waffles is Waffle’s House speciality. Savory waffles always come with butter. Chocolate chip waffles are a kid dish. Waffle House used to be a bargain place. No longer.

[@KavaKavana]

Waffle House is supposed to be a “greasy spoon” but you kinda have to pour syrup all over the waffles and definitely have bottomless coffee. Also the bacon and sausage get dipped in the syrup as well.

[@Dularr]

You can order many of the items separately. Good place for anyone needing extra proteins. Steak, pork chops, grill chicken breast.

[@PegasusBYU]

I have to agree with the other comments in that waffles are to be eaten with butter and syrup. To not do so is is an injustice to the waffle. I tend to ask for mine to be browner/cooked longer. Also adding onions to the hash browns is a must for me. Love Waffle House!

Yes to butter and syrup, just make sure the waffles are warm or hot, which means dealing with them as soon as served.

[@Not-Ap]

I mean you can have other stuff on it too like jelley, jam, or honey The butter is fine but all that sugar or maple syrup in imo is too much now. When I was little I dumped it on though liberally.

@@rbfoster I didn't look to deeply into it.🤷‍♂Also I would and have done that. I've also known other people who have as well. Not sure why you think that's abnormal at least for health conscious people. People go to ihop and don't order pancakes even though it's known for it's pancakes. There's no rules says you have too though some may cry sacrilege.

[@Not-Ap]

@@rbfoster No I got it completely 100%. I was trying to very mildly say I completely disagree with the assertion that waffles need butter or syrup in order to do them justice. They are fine without adding butter or syrup provided there not the extra thick kind. In which lots of syrup and butter are needed.

I do same along addition of scattered hashbrown with everything and hot sauce. I love WH's scattered hashbrown. Sometimes, I will get t-bone steak instead of bacon depending on time of day or my mood for meat.

[@stephenange8179]

The best part about hash browns (to me) is customization. At waffle house, they have different slang words for each item. If you tell them you want your hash browns "smothered & covered" they'll come with sautéed onions & covered in cheese. There are tons of options & combinations. The "hashbrown slang" used to be on the menu. I'm enjoying watching your visit to North Carolina (probably because I live here) But I live in Eastern North Carolina, closer to the beach. It's a shame you haven't visited here (unless I missed it) Hope you enjoyed your visit 😊

Waffle House never closes so if you happen to see one that is, run for your life, something bad is going on! 😆

I'm a Californian who only recently tried out Waffle House for the first time, since they don't have any where I live. What blew me away concept-wise is that you can have all these different toppings on your hash browns! I never thought of that before, and absolutely love the idea. Fun video!!

[@tc-su4gw]

Lol. I can't believe you guys did a video on waffle house. It's basically for old people and drunk people. The only time I went was as a kid or when it's super late after a night out. I think it's just nostalgic old food that people go there for. It's not bad. It has its charm.. But it's not really known for quality unless it's the lack of it. Lol. Glad you had fun.

[@spistokache]

The jam was for the toast. Butter and syrup on waffles always.

Waffle House is known for their consistency across the country. Always good food. And yes, drown your waffle with syrup.

Every waffle house has a group of locals who eat there every single day. Strange by true. Also, never go to waffle house after dark unless you to either get into a fight with local bar drunks, or at the very least, witness a fist fight between the staff and aforementioned drunk patrons. Honestly glad you made it out of there.

[@joeday4293]

If you are moving or have moved to a new city and you want some tips from locals, go to the Waffle House if they have one, and sit near a group of people who look like they are there every day. They can tell you everything from good neighborhoods to good schools to the best grocery store.

[@EtzEchad]

Every Waffle House I've ever been to has someone smoking a cigarette outside. Also, they are very good at greeting guests when they come in the door. I suspect that the latter issue is because they are understaffed. I just wish that they had WHs in Minnesota. BTW, Americans eat waffles and pancakes with butter and maple syrup. I've never seen anyone eating them dry like you guys do. Of course, tastes vary, but I'd encourage you to try them with butter. Butter makes everything better!

Half and Half is not at all like Semi-skimmed. Semi-skimmed means they've removed some of the fat from whole milk, thats what skimming is. Half and Half is a product made by combining Whole milk with whole cream with a 50 : 50 ratio.

Personally I find most large chains in the US aren’t that great. Smaller more regional chains tend to be better in my opinion though there’s a few big ones that are quite nice. I just feel like the smaller ones can focus on buying regional, fresh ingredients a lot easier than the big chains.

[@beverlydust5381]

Love the hats,I love hearing your impressions of the food. You had a Waffle House experience.

[@brandonhall7498]

In order to have the proper Waffle House experience, you need to show up at precisely 3:45 am. Bonus points if you are drunk as a skunk. The cook will be outside smoking and give you the side eye before opening the door for you and tell you to "gimme bout 5 min fam". The wait staff will be half flirting/half threatening to murder each other and it will be the best food you have ever had. Scattered, covered, capped, and topped.

[@wfly81]

Joel probably didn't like the chocolate chip waffles because people outside of the US typically hate our chocolate. There's butyric acid in our chocolate that outsiders say tastes a bit like vomit (because butyric acid is also produced in the stomach).

You ain't et no pancakes at no Waffle House, son. 😆 The great thing about Waffle House is, if you like the food at the first one you eat at, you will like the food at every one in America - every Waffle House looks and feels the same on the inside, and the food always tastes the same. They are nothing if not consistent.

Don't be afraid to ask for extra silverware/utensils. It would be considered a very simple request. If the server seems worried when you ask, like they are concerned that there is something wrong with your first set, just openly say you want a separate set for your waffle. If you ask for a specific utensil, like a knife, don't be alarmed if they bring you a set wrapped in a napkin. Many places will prep utensils ahead of service and it is easier/quicker for a server to grab a set than to bring you a specific utensil. You shouldn't have any issues or get any bad looks from the staff by requesting new utensils. It isn't like everyone does it, but it definitely isn't rare. If they don't encounter that request at least once per day, the the place they are working must be dead. It should be a completely normal request for a server here in The States if they are seeing 100+ guests per day. Even if they only see 10 per day, in a week they will get that request. PS - If you are in a diner/sit-down restaurant and want to help your servers/bussing staff, place napkins and empty jam/jelly/creamer containers on plates with any leftover food. Stack all empty drink cups, pouring all ice into the last one, and place silverware/utensils in the final cup. Leave mugs by themselves.

I’ll agree with you about stacking the dishes. After being a server in my younger years, I started doing that after I got married. My hubby asked me why I did that. I told him it was a curtesy to the server. I wish the people I served would have done that for me. Back in those days, the server had to bus their own tables.

You guys should visit Busch Gardens Tampa

Waffle House is like its own alternate universe. They even have the *Waffle House Rules* on display in each restaurant. It's great to go there late at night and see the variety of people there... you might find people who attended a musical, some who saw a punk band, homeless people, drunks, and people who just got off work. I try to guess who in the restaurant is carrying a gun, aside from any police who are there. One time I was in one and heard a couple workers discussing the terms of their probation. If you sit at the counter or certain tables you get a great view of their cooking methods. I've been in ones where they have a hose to clean the kitchen area floor with. Many, if not all the staff know how to do multiple jobs. I don't know if this is true right now, but traditionally staff has stuck around there longer because there are more employee benefits than some other food chains. I once got carryout there while on a lunch break. Apparently they were out of plastic utensils because when I opened the bag they had given me metal ones. I would have liked to have heard a poetic recitation of the terms they use to describe how you can get your hash browns: _scattered, smothered, covered, topped, capped, chunked_ etc. I'm tempted to go in and ask for my hash browns _scattered, battered, shattered, flipped, ripped, buried, married, harried, shrimped, and pimped_ , just to see their reaction. But I wouldn't dare. That might violate the *Waffle House Rules* .

I know you are all watching your diets, but you could at least TRY a small section of food the way Americans do, such as put syrup and butter on the waffles.

I ate at the Waffle House for the first time in Tucson last summer and is was really good. The prices were cheap too. I'd love to eat at another one someday.

Waffle House around 2:30am after the bars is the time to go! Best entertainment/people watching.

No, it's not illegal if it is the child of the owner. Laws don't apply to owner's children. I grew up in a restaurant. I started working at 10.

[@restman1]

To truly experience the waffle house. You must go at 3 in the morning. LOL

Trick I learned: put a bit of moisturizer on your lips before you use lip balm. The lip balm has a petrolatum base which will protect, but won’t add moisture.

Paid in waffles - I almost lost it! Funniest thing I have heard all week!

[@b1promotions]

FYI butter on waffles is a must!

[@o.c.smithiii2626]

They have an expanded menu - also -pro tip, you can ask for extra time on the waffle to make it crispy on the outside, and for Joel, you can ask for dark roast coffee, it’s much more full bodied than the usual stuff they give.
