The last one I wrote was on the Pandan waffle at Green Waffle Diner.
I was going to try the belgian waffles at Kramp, but they were not available when I went, so maybe I will try later.
Currently on Open Rice there are not many waffle places, the ones listed are Green waffle diner, Ocio waffle and the new Waffle yo.
There used to be Belgian Waffle Boys and Belgian Waffle which went out of fashion gradually, so maybe the new Waffles on a stick will be the new trend.
It wins because it is served on a stick and very convenient to eat. In other countries they have much more shapes according to the Waffle grill they use.
Although I havent tried Ocio, but Ocio cuts their waffles into smaller pieces which makes it less messy to eat as well.
I still havent tried Ocio yet because it seems slightly localized, but I could be wrong.
The Chinese version of waffles are either eggettes or grid waffles which are too crispy for my preference.
Leighton Road used to be so boring, there were not any eateries around apart from Danish Bakery, which served hot dogs and chinese snacks until Yogo, Slices, and Stand Up Eating came to the area.
Waffle yo serves hotdogs too, so Danish Bakery could be a in competition!
Same for YOGO because Waffle yo serves froyo as well!
Although I didnt try their froyo, it looked pale yellow in colour when others ordered it.
Waffle yo is famous for their waffles and they serve froyo too, hence the name WAFFLE YO.
This joint is pretty easy to locate if you've had singing lessons with Starplus.
But anyway, you should find it before you reach yogo next to 7-11.
When you enter the joint, it is really cute, it has a pink ceiling.
On each side of the wall, there are jars of sweets at the top part of wall.
On the left there are dispensers filled with toppings for the froyo, and on the right it is slightly less decorated, but there is a cute cow with mini plates, teapots and cups stuck on it, and it has GOT PAINT written on it if you look at it closely instead of GOT MILK!The plates and ceramics on the cow are so cute; they are so small and painted with fine details.
Apart from waffles, I came here for the fries as well because I love mayonnaise and chips which I found out from on their website.I ordered the fries first because I prefer eating savory items before sweet things.
The fries cost $18 with a choice of mayo, wasabi mayo or sour cream and chives.
I had my fries with mayo.
After having the fries I ordered the Waffle on a stick with maple syrup, I couldnt quite find the caramel as stated on their website.
The waffle on a stick cost $16 with a choice of condensed of condensed syrup, maple syrup, strawberry jam and hot chocolate fudge.

Fries with mayo
The amount of mayo given was less than the amount featured on their site, but it was the localized sweet and sour version which I didnt like anyway.
I should have picked the other two instead.
The fries were good though, crispy on the outside and soft inside, if matched with real mayo then it would be divine.
The fries had some flavoured coating on the outside which gave it some flavour and colour.
◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆Waffle on a stick
I loved this!!! The tray was die-cut with a tiny semi circle at the end, so the waffle stick could be rested there.
The waffle stick was made of paper just like the lollipop sticks in UK.
The tray was thin which was slightly flimsy for someone who is clumsy like me!
It smelt so nice and the waffle inside was soft and wholesome, not filled with air yet crispy on the outside.
The aerosol cream was nice too, but turned into liquid fast!
The waffle was really nice on its own and even nicer with cream that it didnt really need the sauces.
I felt the sauce made it slightly too sweet.
Hopefully the waffles will remain like that with a yummy soft centre and crispy outside because the locals in HK seem to like everything crispy and crunchy. NYF had to localize their fries because people dont like soft fries.
Although they have waffle cones and waffle bowls for froyo [the crispy version], I would have loved to have a splodge of froyo with the waffle on a stick, similar to having american pancakes with yogurt.
◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆While I was there, there were hoards of people coming in, mostly girls and students.
I found the self-service toppings on the wall were a good idea, something I would have liked to have seen at the Fru:yo factory branch in TKO.
I noticed that instead of the topping being put directly on the yogurt, the people were given an empty cup to collect the toppings and then it was passed to the staff to put on their yogurt and weighed which lengthened the serving time slightly.
There was not a collection tray or something at the bottom of the dispensers, hence the topping kept rolling to the floor when it was used.
The area of the shop was quite small hence some people left because they thought there was a queue.
The dispensers on the left were two tiered, the top tier was slightly out of reach for children and the not so tall.
Overall I love this joint and would recommend it to any expats or XBC's not sure about the locals because they probably like things crispier than it should.
Hopefully next time I can try another waffle with a splodge of froyo.
It was good they had examples of the items being served and they had onion rings as well.
Although the buns for the hotdogs were a bit localized with sesame on top.
