Kilted Russian at Waffle House

[Galician]

That's as good as when a woman asked if I spoke English.

While kilted?

While kilted?

Of course. I was in Grand Central Station, having a bite while on my way home from the Highland Games a few weeks ago.

She then asked how long I had been in the country.

After I told her that I was a native, she responded that she had never seen a man in a kilt before.

When I asked her where she was from, she replied Dayton, Ohio.

What's a Waffle House?

It's a chain of greasy spoon diners popular in the South. The kind of place where you don't have to order grits; they just come.

My default answer for that question is "no."

I have always said you tell whether you were in the North or South by checking the local Waffle House. In the South, grits are standard. In the North, you have a choice between grits or hash browns.

And yes, they do have them in the North; they're just not as common: one per town instead of one per neighborhood.

I don't think we have them in the PNW.

I've seen exits down south with 2 per exit, and not seeing an exit for at least half an hour lacking a waffle house. We have one in town here, and 1 in both the northern and southern town from here, then there is a good sized gap.
