Wild Blooms’ Charcoal Chicken Waffle ($14.90 nett) features a thick, joocy chicken thigh that’s deep fried and thoroughly glazed with a sweet & spicy squid ink sauce.

If you’re a fellow man of culture who prefers thighs to breasts, this is a delicious delight. It’s subtly spicy, and the sweetness and crunch on the excellent batter encasing the chicken evokes pleasant memories of superbly sapid Korean Fried Chicken as you chomp on the chicken.

Unfortunately, the waffles betrayed the entire team, as they were nowhere near as crispy as they should’ve been, and weren’t really that fluffy either. Plus, the shredded lettuce is neither aesthetic nor tasty, but it’s healthy...sorta. They would’ve done much better to slap some multi coloured coleslaw in between the chicken & waffle instead.

Stick to the chicken, kids.
