Tropical Crunch Waffle - The Turning Point

$9.49 + Tax
I had better waffles back in California, but this is one decent breakfast joint in this area of the Jersey Shore.  This Belgian waffle is topped with fresh bananas, strawberries, mango, crunchy granola with a side of strawberry reduction.  I think they can improve on the batter of the waffle and the strawberry sauce which is a little bland to me, and is lacking of strawberry flavor.  Overall, it's a decent waffle.

I have many favorites, the Liwan Sampan Congee (a slow cooked thick rice soup, that has shredded meat, fried pork skin, jelly fish and squid, and topped with salty fried or roasted peanuts, crispy Chinese crouton, and a sprinkle of chopped green onions).  This congee was originated from the Liwan District in Guangzhou China many many years ago.   It was prepared and sold by the boat people there. This is how the congee got its name.  This congee was then made very popular in Hong Kong and Macau through migration.
