Soft and Chewy Belgian Waffle Sandwiches

There's a kiosk at the ground floor of Sta. Lucia East Grand Mall that serves pancakes not only for breakfast but all day long. Wait, they're not just pancakes, they're BELGIAN WAFFLES!

It has always intrigued me why this kiosk has the longest line, so one afternoon, I stopped by to see what the hype is all about.

Since that was my first time, I did not know what to get, good thing they have this big menu (with prices) by the wall and also by the counter which I took photos of, of course.

Turns out, they sell not just waffles but waffle sandwiches. That's one big freshly cooked waffle folded in half with your choice of filling inside. And for my first time, I ordered my favorite, Blueberry and Creamcheese for only P55.00.

By the way, price starts at P35.00 for the single flavors and P55.00 for the combination fillings.

The waiting time for my order was a bit of a wait because they make the waffles as you order, but the kiosk has a dine-in area where I can see the waffles as they were being made, and I also got to chat with one of the staff who told me that their bestsellers are the Blueberry & Creamcheese and Banana Hazelnut flavors, so the 15-minutes waiting time was not boring for me.

I also ordered a cup of Malaysia Coffee for only P35.00 out of curiosity, which looked like 3-in-1 instant coffee. The staff said it's already sweetened. On my first sip, I find it nutty and sweet, which was pleasant to the taste. But when taken with my waffles which filling was sweet, I could barely finish the small cup.

Anyway, here's my Blueberry and Creamcheese Waffle, straight from the pancake maker and served in a paperbag and on a wooden plate.

Here's a close-up look of my order.

The waffles were soft and chewy, not crunchy which was what I initially thought, and the filling was of real blueberry jam and creamcheese, and it oozes on my first bite so it was definitely worth its price.

It was filling too. In fact, I can hardly finish the whole thing. Two persons could probably share an order.

Next time, I'd try their other bestseller, the Banana Hazelnut.

Happy Eating!
