      Having grown up where gravy was the norm, it hurts every time I see a restaurant serving it without gravy as an option.

        When I moved to California from the Midwest the first time I ordered chicken tenders they asked what sauce. I asked if they had gravy. I was looked at like a demented lunatic. She refused to believe I actually wanted cream gravy for dipping my chicken. I went with the no sauce option since apparently I’m a lunatic.

    I ordered chicken and waffles at a small diner one time, it was my first time trying it. My server gave me half a chicken (literally) that had been deep fried and a pile of waffles that had to be at least 6 inches high. Best $13 I’ve ever spent but I’ve been afraid to order them ever since

        It’s been almost a decade since I’ve been there haha. It’s on the corner of 207 and US1 in St Augustine. Google says it’s a metro diner, which is a local chain. Not sure if it was a metro when I went there but I wish you well if you give it a shot!

    I’ve never done tendies from scratch, but can make a good batch of nuggies with a bit of panko.

    I could never eat meat in the morning as soon as I wake up, I find it very unappealing.

    I guess it’s an acquired taste

      I don’t think breakfast needs to be that immediate? The dish prepared here almost certainly took a minimum of 30, if not 45+ minutes to make, and there’s no indication it was immediately after waking. Breakfast can be a bit later.
