| - "Love at first bite" is scrawled across the outside of the truck, and it's a pretty accurate assessment. I had heard good things about this brand but gave up getting to try the product since they are from out of state and only come to town for annual food truck festivals... but last weekend, Chris V posted a photo of their waffles on IG with an alert that they were here for the day!
Naturally, I dropped everything and headed over. The truck is painted in a cute and eye-catching desert theme with hearts, and the service is as sweet as the treats. At the staff's suggestion, I ordered their most popular waffle, the Red Wonder (Biscoff, fresh cream, strawberries and raspberries, $9.50). I was delighted by the temperature contrasts of the fresh, warm waffle and cold, thick cream. The cookie butter was a nice touch of savory to balance things out, and the fruit was fresh and plentiful. It was so good I joked about coming back for another..
Three hours later, I returned for the Lemon Berry Love (lemon curd, cream, raspberries, $9.50). The waffle was light and chewy, and the cream was cold and fresh, but I didn't enjoy the flavor of the lemon curd as much as I'd anticipated. My BF preferred this one to the former, though.
We have a few places in town that specialize in waffles, but none do them as well as Waffle Love. I wish they came to town more often, but for now I'll just have to appreciate them as an extra-special treat when they roll into town!
