How multiculural are you?

Curry isn't unhealthy unless you eat it in a restaurant in America. I learned to make curry from my friend, Tanvi. There's nothing in it that's bad for you unless you eat it on potatoes but that's just because potatoes aren't very healthy.

And their chicken nuggets! :o

Careful when eating those things!
I've heard that they've actually found small traces of chicken in them!

Snopes has determined that's a hoax.

You know how McDonalds says their burgers are 100% beef, I read somewhere on the internet (that's how I know it's true) that there's not enough cows in the world for that to be true!

The provenance of Chicken and Waffles is actually interesting and varied! A brief summary of the Wikipedia article:

- Waffles became popular in America when Thomas Jefferson brought back a waffle iron from France (apparently in the 1700s there weren't pop singers or reality stars to emulate, so things got cool when statesmen did them).
- In the 1800s, places like Baltimore and Philadelphia started incorporating waffles into recipes, and started serving Catfish and Waffles, which quickly became Chicken and Waffles because it's a lot easier to get chicken than catfish.
- The Philadelphia version of chicken and waffles (with gravy) migrated northwest, and was adopted by the mid-1800s as a Pennsylvania Dutch staple, commonly served on Sundays.
- The Baltimore version of the dish (with syrup or cream) migrated south and became popular as a delicacy in African American communities; it was eventually made famous by its introduction to restaurants in Harlem in New York City.
- The Harlem version of Chicken and Waffles became famous in Los Angeles due to Harlem resident Herb Hudson's famous restaurant Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles.

So. That was interesting! We both learned a lot today

Edit: Forgot to include said Wikipedia article (I cite my sources yo): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_and_waffles

Second Edit: I should also note that the gravy version generally uses stewed, broiled or grilled chicken, whereas the syrup version generally uses fried chicken.

Ahh yes... good old Chicken and waffles.  I grew up in Baltimore. We had this served with mashed potatoes and gravy all over everything. 

Of course, now it's either a breakfast food served with butter and syrup OR we serve it with a scoop or two of strawberry ice cream.

Speaking of cheese steaks...the best place to get a Philly cheese steak is in, of course, Philly. I am just an hour and a half west of there and twice a year I make the pilgrimage to Philly just so I can sink my teeth into one of those babies. Oh the joy of a mouthful of steak, cheese and fried onions!

There is Captain Harvey's down in Dundalk, Maryland, and while they do an awesome job, one from Philly is simply amazing.

I've never been to Philly so I'm stuck making my own

I'm sure it's quite amazing as well

Chicken and waffles... Dammit, now I'm hungry and not a damn waffle or chicken to be found.
