WHOA. Nuts.
First there was the donut burger, cronut, crookie and now… The Wonut. That’s right. The waffle-donut has been birthed by Chicago brunch spot Waffles Cafe.
The Wonut is essentially this: you make a waffle, punch out a hole (if it pleases you), deep fry it, glaze it, ice it, decorate and sprinkle it. We’re not saying you should try this at home but we are saying we may.
Our extensive research suggests The Wonut hasn’t travelled north yet. But keep your eyes peeled, fatties. There’s no way a smart Toronto chef isn’t about to tap into this.
