Waffles

Last week's Valentine's Day date with the boy. He's not a sweet(s) person so I usually end up finishing most of our "shared" desserts. I guess he is still sweet for loving me despite my ever-expanding waistline.

Anyway, this is one of the best waffles around, the batter crimped in the griddle so impeccably that the dimpled exterior boasts a lightly crisp texture while the insides provide the contrast of a soft, fluffy bite.

While the buttery burnt sugar flavour of the glossy salted caramel enhanced the toastiness of the waffle nicely, I think they could afford to be less generous with it as I found it too saccharine halfway through the waffle, especially when teamed with the vanilla bean ice cream and icing sugar.
