Hippie Waffles

I was listening to an NPR program called Good Food a few weeks ago and heard this story about these guys, Gideon Brower and his friend Jack, who is an “old-school hippie” that he calls Hippie Jack. They decided to devote an entire day to canvas the city in search of LA’s best waffle. The rule was that every waffle would be stacked up against something called the “Green-Sherman” waffle. The Green-Sherman is a creation of Jack’s friends in Seattle, and he calls it a legendary “hippie waffle.”
