Lolo's Chicken & Waffles

Okay, okay.... I know it sounds weird, but let me tell you....it was delicious!  Everyone was talking about the new chicken and waffles place in Scottsdale.  And every time I drove by, it was packed. On the weekends, there is a line out the door.  So, they must be doing something right. Which is why my brother, niece and I decided to try it one Sunday morning.
We sat up at their breakfast bar, which was cool.  We could see right back into the kitchen, where about 10 waffle makers lined up against the back wall.  On the bar were 4 large cake displays, displaying incredible cakes.  There were about 4 large flat screen TVs through-out the place for visual affect, as they pumped some hip-hop and pop music for audio affect.
My brother and I order the Tre-tre, which was 1 waffle and 2 chicken legs (see pic below).  The waffle was quite large, and I don't think I have ever seen such large chicken legs either.  After prepping my waffle with butter and syrup, I shredded some chicken from the bone, took a little of the chicken and a little bite of waffle.  All I can say is OMG!  It was delicious.  I am a big fan of the salt/sweet thing, so this was perfect.
The waffle tasted as if it had some cinnamon flavor or something.  My niece agreed that she has never had a better waffle.  She was too scared to try it with chicken.....but she is totally missing out.
I highly recommend trying chicken and waffles, no matter how weird it my sound to you.  I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

P.S. They also have many other breakfast and lunch items that have nothing to do with waffles mixed with chicken.  We can't wait to go back and try a bunch of other items that looked good.

Scottsdale Farmer's Market

It's that time again.....for the Farmer's Market!  Can you believe that I have lived here for 16 years now, and this was the first time I went to the Scottsdale Farmer's Market?  I know, I know....I can't believe it either.

It was a blast. I think I spent about $120.  I got raw honey, peach jelly made from peaches grow in AZ, cow fed beef, herbs to plant in my garden, homemade tamales, organic crackers, and more.  I was so excited to see all the different types of vendors selling such healthy and yummy foods.

This week, there will be a huge corner occupied by a local farm selling amazing produce.

I definitely recommend checking this market out.  They are open on Saturdays from 8:30am to 1pm, and located in Old Town on Brown and 1st Street.  

Have fun!  So much to see and discover.
