Tucked away inside a quaint and cheerful restaurant in Vermont is one of the strangest yet most delicious brunch creations you’ll ever taste. Sweet, salty, rich, and filling, the chicken and waffle dishes at Duino Duende are really something. Here’s how you can try one for yourself.
Waffles? With fried chicken? Blasphemy! At least, that’s what you’ll think until you sample one of the amazing chicken and waffle plates by Duino Duende .
This humble eatery is known amongst locals for their gorgeously quirky interior and internationally inspired menu. However, it’s the chicken and waffles that truly make this spot stand out.
For those not in the know, chicken and waffles is a distinctly southern treat that tends more towards the savory than the sweet. However, many versions feature just as much syrup and butter as you would have on a typical breakfast waffle.
At Duino Duende, this dish is served simply but deliciously. Their take involves perfectly fried chicken, fluffy waffles, honey butter, and sausage gravy.
Pair it with one of their other creative creations, like the caramel French soda or the leafy kale salad. Any which way you have it, you’ll want to have more.
