Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth: Wafels & Dinges
The late night crowd has found themselves a new craving that comes in another one of those trucks. No, it isn’t halaal food neither does it serve cupcakes but close. This one lures you in with the delicious smell of strawberries, chocolate and batter.
What is this new phenomenon that’s taking over the street of downtown NYC? It’s the Belgian Wafels & Dinges (or waffles and toppings).
Everyone who passes by it are stopped by the heavenly aroma they smell. Then you hear ‘what’s this?’ and when they find out, you hear ‘I got to get one of these.’ Upon the first bite, you will feel a rush of happiness through your body. It’s good. It feels like you’re doing something bad. Eating waffles with fresh strawberries topped with Nutella and whipped cream and drizzled with chocolate syrup during the late hours of the night, oh the crime. It’s the best thing to snack on in between bar hopping or restaurant hopping.They offer more than just waffles my friends. If waffles don’t do it, your late night sweet tooth can finally be satisfied with vanilla ice cream topped with Belgian chocolate fudge and whipped cream. Patrons are not only charmed by this waffle truck stand with its fruity and sweet menu but by their price tag. Everything on the menu cost under $6 so go ahead and indulge a little bit.
Wafels & Dinges have claimed themselves masters of their craft. Earlier this year, Wafels & Dinges founder Thomas Degeest won the ‘Throw Down’ with celebrity chef Bobby Flay. Degeest totally schooled the seasoned chef on how to make mouth watering decadent wafels and dinges.
Thomas also said that he plans to bring more of the beloved food truck to different NYC neighborhoods. So far, sightings have included St. Mark’s Place, Union Square and 46th between 5th and 6th. Did I mention they also serve hot Belgian cocoa?
Has anyone else spotted this wonderful truck of goodness?

They are decent but for the money I would expect something more worthy of the taste I've learned to Love when I visited Brussels.
Oh my. Want.
Yummmm. That sounds delicious!!
I'd use a waffle as a mere vessel for chocolate syrup and whipped cream! I'd put on all it could take.
