Waffles For Breakfast - Philadelphia Style

Liberty Bell Waffles
In August, we spent a couple of days in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We stayed at the Downtown Philadelphia Marriott hotel. we had a very busy evening seeing the sites of the city and turned in for bed late. The next morning, we decided to eat at the hotel restaurant. (Mistake!)

We were seated quickly and soon the waitress took our order. I ordered a waffle with maple syrup and turkey sausages. After about 10 minutes wait, my waffle arrived, and as you can see, was as big as the plate. And being in Philly, it had the Liberty Bell icon embedded in the waffle. A nice touch.

The waffle was as waffles go, but it was good, cooked well, and filling. The turkey sausage was surprisingly good as well.

The cost however was where the good feelings ended. What you see here, a waffle, and several links of turkey sausage,  cost 18 bucks. Even for Manhattan, 18 bucks would be extremely high.

For the cost reason alone, the Grassy Knoll Institute does not recommend the downtown Philadelphia Marriott hotel restaurant for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and awards 1.5 shots out of 5.

    You can see the crack of the bell. That is good detail. Maybe that’s why it cost so much.

    Chica –
    Nexy morning, does that mean it was a naughty morning?

    Gumby –
    Don’t get testy with me….

    LOTGK –
    Yes Chica, Nexy, cause I put the S in Sexy baby… Almost typed that with a straight face.

    LOTGK –
    Painter, I hope that’s not the reason why. I will say the waffle was good as far as waffles go.
