Last Saturday some friends and I went to check out this waffle fad that’s cropped up locally in one Korea-town area here in Big D. Basically three of these waffle cafes popped up in the same area all at once, something I noticed one weekend a while ago, so naturally I got really curious.

This one was Caffe Bene in Carrollton. I ordered the Banana Caramel signature waffle and tea sangria, which was pomegranate tea with fruity juice and fruit slices in it.  Mainly berry and lime, with mint leaves. And though it was called sangria there was no alcohol in it! But it would have probably been awesome that way as well.

Though I’m not really a sweets-oriented person, I really have to say the overall experience was a good one. I enjoyed it and I wouldn’t say no to partaking of some of these type waffles again! A reliable source tells me that this is not waffles as we see them here in the states (where we just slather syrup and butter on), but more of a waffle done in the proper Belgian style. So that part was intriguing to me. Overall a tasty snack. I’m sure I’ll be seeing plenty more of these type shops in Japan – I’ve been told they’re pretty popular right now. My tastebuds are looking forward to it! :)
