Waffle Haus

Thread Starter 
Last Friday I met a German man at the Capital Grill when I went there to find a napkin for my collection as the last one I found had an unattractive ring mark from the glass that must of been sitting on it. As we were discussing boutique fast food chains in the US he told me that he is planning on opening a place similar to Waffle House in Germany by the name of Waffle Haus. He said that the menu would be similar but offer different meat options such as a specialty called curry wurst. He seemed impressed by my enthusiasm and general knowledge of Waffle House and similar chains and offered me a position since it would require me moving to Germany I told him I would think about it and get back to him next week. Do you feel that his business model could be successful in Europe particularly Germany?

Nah. She worked the drunk hours at Waffle House in Raleigh for about 30 years and was hit by a drunk driver a few weeks ago.

Being best friends with a Big Talkerâ„¢ that's perennially about to open a business I'd forget about it.

It won't open for me! Please tell me this was not the Hillsborough St. location. Do you live in Raleigh? I used to live in the Wilmont on Hillsborough and on Hope St.

Link opened. I knew that lady pretty well. One of my friends who is actually an accomplished chef now got his start there at 15. Poor Bets. I should call some friends and tell them.
