    “We’re having a lot of fun with waffles on our menu. They are high in protein, Paleo-friendly, and work with almost any topping, plus they taste great and are healthy. My current favorite is our Berries + Cream Paleo waffle. [Waffles] create the perfect backdrop for a fruit-centric dish, while still being high in protein and Paleo-friendly.”
