Chicken and Waffles must be a popular combination. After all, Bobby Flay lost a C & W throwdown to Mabel from Harlem. But I had never heard of it until arriving in Pasadena, the home of one of the five locations of “Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles”, Wikipedia’s first Chicken and Waffle restaurant entry.
The physical plant was down-home (meaning cheap but serviceable) and optimistically full of locals last Friday. Apparently the locals in Pasadena don’t know decent fried chicken, because Roscoe’s didn’t serve any up. Instead it was dry, overcooked, and unappealing. But the waffles were quite good.
2.5 tarts.
