After a few months of being out of commission, Wafels and Dinges hit the road again a few weeks ago with a brand new, tricked out truck. To celebrate, they gave away free wafels on Thursday… so naturally I was there to wait on line and get my bit of free waffle goodness. The new truck is quite a sight to behold, with a giant lit up menu and newly installed speakers that pump 50s music from Sirius/XM satellite radio onto the street. If you’re really lucky, they’ll throw on the kind of annoying/kind of amazing “Waffle Song” while you’re waiting on line. It’s really loud, and I’m guessing at some point it’s going to get them kicked out of at least one of their regular spots. After15 minutes of hanging out, and listening to music, I thought for sure the guys serving the waffles were going to jump on top of the truck and start singing and dancing.
For free waffle hour, you got a half portion of whichever kind of wafel you wanted (brussels or liege) topped with two dinges (I went with banana and chocolate.) Delicious. Of course, the fact that it was free helped tremendously. I’ve never actually done a proper post about the Wafels and Dinges Truck, which spends a few days a week in Midtown. As you may or may not know, they not only sell waffles with sweet toppings but they also have savory waffle topped with BBQ pork and cole slaw that’s perfect for lunchtime. I posted about this when they introduced it back in October, but never actually got to try it for myself.
Well, as long as I was there…
