Never been to a waffle house.
I don't mind chain food, especially for dinner. But for breakfast? no. though chainlets like Roscoe's are fine. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I love Waffle House, but I have to go a fair ways south to find one. We have to make do with IHOP here. (I first typed "iHop")

I will always have a fondness for Cracker Barrel, because I once met my sister and her GF there (in Rockford, which is halfway between Chicago and Madison). At that meeting, my youngest son was conceived.
Hopefully with neither of the two people you mention meeting.
And for sanitation purposes, I hope not in Cracker Barrel either.

IHOP should totally go iHOP. It would be hip, new generation. Though I hate IHOP.

I donated sperm to my sister's GF, so... yeah.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oooh, you need to hear this one.

Sis and GF have a minivan, so we... took turns using the back.

I'm good with breakfast in chain restaurants.
Pecan waffles, though, are not breakfast food to me so much as, "Look! There's a Waffle House! Stop!" food. Though, the farther south I drive, the more of them there are, so the less often I indulge.
Actually, there's a Waffle House twenty minutes from me now. Back in the day, though, I didn't hit one until the Carolinas at the earliest.

And you've never tried to sell this story to Cracker Barrel for their advertising?
Why they could film that story and show it every Xmas!
