understand format.
Agnes wants to share the light style of waffles from Belgium and goes
to great lengths to do just that. Ingredients sourced locally and from
Belgium, all waffles made to order, accompanied by excellent (Belgian!)
coffee. I had the cheese and bacon waffle with coffee for lunch
as I work in Moreton - there is a choice of savoury or sweet waffles.
