Yes, Waffle House has the feeling of a "diner" - despite being a chain restaurant. Yes, he is correct they ordered the dish and the staff made it, without the dish being on the menu.

We have many types of gravy, white sausage gravy is just one. There's red eye gravy, brown gravy, giblet gravy, cornmeal gravy, chocolate gravy, tomato gravy, and I'm sure there's many more you'll see across the US

White gravy is what the British would call a bechamel sauce -flour, butter or pan drippings, milk and salt and pepper.

But which of the 3 immortal space-time witches that work as waitresses at *every* waffle house is your favorite? The 40-ish, rail thin trailer lady who looks like a Walter White fan, has too much energy, to the point of annoying you, but delivers polite, no-nonsense service? Maybe the eternal teenager who is sooooo over your sh*t, and is a smartass? My favorite is the heavy black lady who is sunshine incarnate.

It's all "Texas Toast", you butter both sides of white bread and toast them. It is a diner, about $6 bucks a plate, and it's just good ass food, cheap, greasy food, but good food. We have the same "brown" gravy and white gravy.

[@alskjflah]

That white southern gravy goes by a few names including sausage gravy and milk gravy. Brown gravy is beef drippings, flour, seasoning and broth. Southern gravy is made from sausage drippings, flour, milk, seasoning (I like it heavy on the black pepper).

The lumpy bits are crumbled sausage.

I am a breakfast person, and love going to different diners. Waffle House is one of my favorites when I travel. I have had breakfast, lunch and dinner there and never had a bad time. Sadly, I do not have one near where I live. It is an institution in communities down south--b/c it is open 24/7, 365, if the restaurant is closed, buckle up b/s come fearsome weather is coming.

My first full-time job was at a Waffle House (and we were next door to a couple of truck stops, so we got all the truckers in!) I never worked the late-night drunks shift, but I would do the afternoon one. And I still love the food there. It's nothing fancy, but it's simple, solid, and really, really good. Every so often, I'll just start craving a Texas cheesesteak sandwich and hashbrowns, or one of their chicken sandwiches. It's good stuff.

Obviously, when you go to the hospital, you never know how long you will be in ER, especially when a serious heart issue, finally going home in the middle of the night starving and having Waffle House at the end of my street reliably open meant so much.That's why I said drunks and alcoholics weren't the only ones going there, or that it was only good if you were tipsy. We all know that's not true, we all have our own reasons why we love it and have memories but I didn't want the wrong message to be taken by our friends from across the pond.

We have all kinds of different gravies. Sausage gravy is one type of white (aka milk) gravy. You fry some patties of American breakfast sausage. Make a roux with the grease. Add milk, let it thicken. Season with salt and pepper. Crumble some of the sausage into it.

Most of diner food originated from the simple cooking from the Great Depression, where diners originated, feeding people en mass, cheaply. It became simple, affordable, comfort food, and with better times came better ingredients, more care, and somewhat standardized expectations across the country. Chicken fried steak, chicken and waffles, biscuits and gravy, shrimp and grits, hamburgers, corndogs, lots of American staples all can trace their origins to poverty foods. And they're gooood!

[@georgefox4764]

I’m glad I live in southern part of USA yea we see this everyday.

[@JulieLWilliams]

In the South, there is the Waffle House Index. It is used to measure the severity of a hurricane. Since this restaurant always remains open, it has given rise to an informal but useful metric to determine the severity of a storm. The index is based on Waffle House's reputation for having good disaster preparedness and staying open during extreme weather or reopening quickly afterwards. If you get there and the Waffle House is closed? That's really bad... Levels The index has three levels, based on the extent of operations and service at the restaurant following a storm: GREEN: full menu - Restaurant has power and damage is minimal or absent. YELLOW: limited menu - Power is either absent or delivered by a generator, or food supplies are running low. RED: the restaurant is closed - Indicates severe damage or severe flooding; Severe destruction to the restaurant.

[@angiriberdy5094]

And the metric is so good at determining the intensity of storms and their damage that it's unofficially used by some agencies to predict response measures. FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) has been known to use it as part of their response readiness calculations. It's that good.

[@matthewjund3355]

Fast food places are mostly for on the go like quick meals for kids or when you have no time to cook or wait in restaurants. Americans still loves the dedicated large restaurants that focus on certain foods like Italian, TexMex, BBQ, or Asian. Our fast food joints are exceptional at advertising which is why the world believes Americans live on McDonalds hamburgers & fries.

[@MrRavager420]

whenever there is a hurricane, you know its bad if the waffle house is closed. in texas we called that gravy texas gravy. anywhere else, its called pepper gravy, sausage gravy, or white gravy. it can be with or without sausage. the white gravy is peppery and creamy. pretty sure its made of heavy cream instead of pan drippings like regular gravy. i would frequent a place called jims in texas after a night out. id dip the chicken strips, texas toast, and fries in the gravy. i miss it dearly lol

[@JustMe-dc6ks]

You use the drippings to make the roux that thickens the milk. If you also crumble a cooked sausage patty into it it’s sausage gravy.

[@aidenroqz]

The best way I can put it is that sothern cuisine is very comforting, its delicious and it feels like you're getting a hug from your mom. In the northeast we have the same but its more of a melting pot, like NYC where im from we have a lot of caribbean diaspora so theres a lot of Jamaican, Trinidadian, Haitian, Dominican, and Puertorican cuisine. But we also have a lot of Asian restaurants and Mexican restaurants but not as good as the west coast from what I hear many people say, its still good though. Theres also very high end restaurants which serve Italian and French cuisine, and of course you cannot mention the Italian and Jewish delis we have in the city which are and institutionof the city alongside the many pizza shops that have been run by generationsof families. The West Coast has a lot of Asian and Mexican restaurants which is the best in the countrybfrom what i have heard, theres also Californian cuisine, which is very much farm to table and focuses a lot on their rich farmland and vineyards they have out there. And the midwest is a lot of meat and potatos and very hearty cuisine which is very much influence by the many Scandinavia immigrants and eastern European immigrants that moved there. Thats just a bit of what I know, I'm sure you have many that will tell you many more characteristics of their foods in their regions. That's what makes America so good, depending on the region or even city, you can find so many different types of cuisines and customs that are inherent to those places. Cheers from NYC my friend keep up the good videos 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

People go to the Waffle House all thru the day. It's popular with the night owls because it;s open in the middle of the night.

[@toodlescae]

I've lived all over the U.S. and each region and state has at least 1 good dish I like. The South has multiple things I'll eat abd love but still has some you couldn't pay me to eat. I despise grits (don't like oatmeal or malt o meal either). I don't like crawfish or really spicy food either. Butter and corn syrup on my waffles. Maybe some powdered sugar. I don't care for maple syrup. After we went out drinking we used to stop at a local place called the Hot Biscuit that was similar to Waffle House, IHOP and Denny's. They had a breakfast buffet that they put out for customers coming from the bars and clubs. I usually didn't eat the buffet because they had cubed breakfast potatoes and I prefer hash browns. Always the same order though. Biscuits and gravy with a side of hash browns and a side of crispy bacon. If I ate the buffet for some reason then I just ate the breakfast potatoes instead of hash browns.

[@ltodd79]

The tradition of eating fried chicken and waffles comes out of New Orleans. Musicians who played the last show were too late for dinner and too early for breakfast, so at the close of their shift they would be served fresh cooked waffles with leftover fried chicken. The white gravy you're seeing is actually sausage gravy. (It's delicious.) We have Waffle House in Northern California. Honestly, the food is pretty good anywhere in the US. My preferences are southern and western (which is much more oriented to beef instead of pork.) I've only recently started eating grits. Probably one of the oldest foods in the Western Hemisphere. I like them!

[@WhatDayIsItTrumpDay]

Grits is a porridge made from ground up hominy. What is hominy? Hominy is a white kerneled field corn. Regular corn that we eat separately is of course Sweet Corn. I personally don't like grits. I'm 50 and I bet I've onky tried 2 or 3 times in my life, and I just can't get into them. Some people put syrup in them, others do cheese, butter, and even shrimp, but I just don't get it,

[@alicechan404]

Granulated (white or brown) sugar is a personal favorite grits topping for me. Cheese + butter is another solid choice. I like to think of it as separating them into breakfast grits or dessert grits; I'm happy with either/or (if they are done well of course).

[@mescko]

I agree. I generally don't like something that has little or no flavor of it's own and has to rely on adding to it to make it interesting. When in Hawaii I discovered poi is in the same category. Just flavorless starch.

Different parts of the country are better at different things. The coast lines tend to have more options for international foods, better sea food, and lots of fusions. The flat parts of america and the center parts tend to have a lot cattle farms so there is a ton of quality beef. Closer to you get to the southern border the better the mexican food. Its very varied. There are also smaller pockets of different cultures everywhere as well. Also the super thick waffles youre thinking of are known as "belgium waffles" and while they are popular, so are thiner waffles. They cook faster and are less filling so you can swap them out for pancakes if you order a breakfast plate. All these plates of food they are ordering probably cost like 6-8 dollars each.

Everyone knows as long as Waffle House is open, the emergency (tornado, ice storm, hurricane) isn’t that bad. Waffle House is reliable comfort food that gets progressively better the later it is and the drunker you are. It is a restaurant definitely more likely to be found in the South, but they are branching out into the northern Midwest. I think Ohio is just an honorary Southern state.

As an American proud of our cuisine, I think it depends on your mood on which region is "best." New England has amazing seafood. The Midwest has classic "meat and potatoes," but game meats cooked perfectly. The South has its own cuisine, and different regions have different styles of amazing barbecue. I enjoy all of it

[@RealzFoSho]

I don't think there is one specific region with the "best" food. The South is probably the best argument for being "the best", I think in large part because of the variety of foods and prevalent use of local ingredients. Anyone visiting the US specifically to explore the food, being limited to one region, without a bias towards certain dishes or flavors, will probably be very happy choosing the South. You can go all over the US and find amazing food though, with influences from all over the world resulting in a huge variety around the country.

Southern Food is kind of a misnomer. You can find this sort of food just about anywhere. I mean it's just typical American breakfast food. Now of course if you're in Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texaa, you'll probably see more of the Mexican style foods, but you can find Eggs, Bacon/Sausage, Hashbrowns (shredded potatoes that are either Deep Fried or grill cooked.) Sausage gravy (made with flour, milk, ground sausage and its grease. Sawmill gravy is the same as the sausage gravy except it isn't cooked with the ground sausage, just sausage grease, milk, and flour...it's used as a topping for Country Fried Steak and Mashed Potatos. I often find it strange that Brits only think brown beef Gravy is the only kind there is. Gravy is actually simply defined as a covering sauce. Salad dressing can be described as a gravy, if you want to be technical about it. Even ketchup on fries could be considered a gravy. Gravy is simply a sauce made from the grease or broth of some other food.

Although I think ihop taste significantly better...nothing like the memories on hitting up a WAFFLE HOUSE at 2am with my car club friends. It's the best for that after party meal meetup.

Waffle House is a nationwide chain here in the US :)

I can't speak for ppl from the south, I'm a Midwestern guy ..waffle House is the type of place you go to and eat like this when yes your drunk or hungover! Other times vast majority may do breakfast there on a weekend once a month or every other month Sure every location will have regulars that may actually hang out there for a couple hours in the morning and more so drink coffee, read the news paper or chat with others...these ppl likely retired and just like some company. Or a certain server was very kind to them!

This is S+ tier drunk food, but it’s like C tier if you’re sober
