Two great things that combined always seemed mediocre to me. I see the appeal, but it's not a satisfying experience for me.

I think the primary draw is an excuse to put maple syrup onto fried chicken.

I just had a great one with Sriracha maple syrup and bacon on Belgian waffles. Fried chicken thighs, no bone

My favorite indulgence. & Super easy to get. If a diner simultaneously had waffles and fried chicken of any sort on the menu, but didn't advertise chicken and waffles, I would happily pay for two entrees and have them prepare my beloved chicken and waffle. This behavior bewildered many waiters and waitresses for some reason.

I've never had the remotest urge. Breaded, fried chicken is already a pretty unhealthy (but tasty) way to eat chicken, and now you're adding a bunch of empty calories and sugar on top? Yeah, miss me with that.

Personally, I'd rather this nice chicken dish, but without the empty-calorie rice:

I can get behind this. I think it's the bone in chicken and waffles I have a, uh, bone with.

The northern version with stewed chicken and gravy makes much more sense to me.
