Who could really go down for some Waffle House real hash brows about now?

Why would anybody go to a restaurant to eat this? You can buy the exact same frozen hash browns and American singles at literally any grocery store and that plate will cost you 50 cents and take less time than driving to the South.

Breakfast foods have higher profit margins than alcohol. The plate in the OP may seem cheap, but it's close to a 1000% mark-up. I honestly can't justify that when it's nothing but frozen/pre-packaged shit thrown on a flat top.

No thank you, anon. I just made delicious hash browns from fresh potatoes fried in ghee with a dash of paprika and cayenne and topped with no salt added Heinz® ketchup. It was the perfect pairing with my burger.

The appeal of restaurants is not the value, it's the fact that somebody else is going to cook a meal, serve it to you, and clean up after

>Breakfast foods have higher profit margins than alcohol
bullshit, alcohol is the highest grosser in every goddamn restaurant
t. lived in a state where food had to be at least 50% of a restaurant's income or else they'd get shut down, and tons of restaurants did

Highest grosser =/= highest profit margins. Eggs and potatoes and bread are all dirt cheap, but if you call it "breakfast" people will pay full restaurant prices for what is essentially poverty food all made by a single short order cook.

Sometimes it's worth it to have someone else do the cooking and cleaning. I made a big breakfast at home with everything from scratch and it took a lot longer compared to ordering it from a breakfast restaurant. I usually do simpler stuff at home and then order something that takes more effort when going out.

I understand not wanting to cook sometimes and paying more to eat out. My point was just that what OP posted is not even worth putting pants on for, let alone driving and paying a huge markup.

VA, basically anything that sells over 50% alcohol is a bar, and no formal bars are allowed to exist

Nope fucktard. Waffel House uses dehydrated instant hash. You can buy at store, in milkbox like box. Waffel house is my SS tier restaurant. I have my hashbrowns with everything but mushrooms, because dicks look like mushrooms and only OP's eat dick.

you can just BUY their salsa next time you go. it's like $4 a böttle. it's extra acidic, i think, and just goes sö well with hashbröwns and eggs. make your hashbröwns with dehydrated pötatöes (i göt some from sam's for like $5 for a gallön's wörth), fry up some diced bacön/butter in your skillet, and grill to your hearts cöntent. i always want my hashbröwns crispier when i get them in a restaurant, but at höme, they pass the förk test.

alsö i don't like waffle höuse chili, but i do like my öwn.

alsö alsö i use cölby cheese instead of Åmerican

Their hash browns always tend to be on the dry side and they don't even put onions in them. They also have the worst sausage gravy I have ever had in my life you can taste the powder.

Literally paying the same cost as a 5 lb bag of potatoes for double serving. Buy a cheese grater and shred your own potatoes and cook them in bacon grease or lard.

It'll never be the same as having them on that waffle house griddle, where millions of potatoes have met their end before. GO ALL THE WAY BITCH.

I never really found their hash browns as good as my own. They're quite oily and unbrowned at the same time *boggle* I could certainly really go down for a lot of my favorites around town for sure though. Oh well. It's pretty bad where I live right now, and I know one day in the next year or two, that'll end. I can wait.

I've always found that to be true.

OP, I could go for their pecan waffles and sausage, but nah on the hash browns. Better hash browns at the Cracker Barrel.

>> No.14297690

I've never understood the appeal of hash browns, or French fries for that matter. Sure, a bite or two is nice for the crunch and the salt. But after that, it's just boring, because there's no real flavor underlying it.

I don't blame you, I grew up in an area with no WH, so it was Dennys for us, or local versions like Eat 'n Park, so I feel you bro.
