A popular food par excellence, the waffle has the knack of taking adults back to their childhood memories. The recipe is simple: flour, eggs, sugar, milk, yeast and that's it. If, however, you don't feel like getting behind the stove to please yourself or your little ones, don't panic: numerous Parisian patisseries, bakeries and cafés are on hand to satisfy your waffle craving in a jiffy.
And there are plenty of waffle recipes to choose from, whether you prefer a simple waffle topped with powdered sugar, a waffle drowned in a mountain of whipped cream and maple syrup, or even a savory waffle accompanied by fried chicken, as in the American South.
In Paris, you're bound to find something to suit your taste. So, here are the addresses in the capital where you can enjoy a good waffle, plump, puffed up and still warm. To eat in or take away!
