welcome everyone Adam the whoo here to
0:04
day number 10 of this current series
0:08
where I venture around to Southern
0:10
California eating establishments gotta
0:13
hop on my bike and zip down the road to
0:16
Anaheim for a tasty meal I'm inviting
0:20
you to join me
0:27
shall you and since I'm choosing that
0:27
mode of transportation gonna take these
0:29
accessories and transport them from the
0:32
carrying style bag into the back
0:36
strapped edition decided not to mount
0:40
the GoPro on the front for this occasion
0:45
it feels good to be back on the bike
0:51
rhaskos parking
0:54
House of chicken and waffles
1:03
this is not the precise location as I
1:03
back up just a bit this is an extra area
1:10
for vehicles to be accommodated because
1:14
this establishment gets very very busy
1:18
it's located right down there about a
1:21
hundred yards or so this is a secondary
1:24
parking lot which I don't even need
1:26
because you got the bicycle and just to
1:30
clarify I've not been wearing this the
1:32
entire time I've been trekking
1:34
on said vehicular item but I'm gonna be
1:39
doing takeout and just makes sense to
1:43
have have this on when I go up in order
1:44
oh yes I have been craving this it has
1:48
been a heck of a long time the Anaheim
1:52
location of Roscoe's chicken and waffles
1:57
available for takeout and delivery
2:16
take a gander at the menu here what's
2:16
the most common thing was just the most
2:18
basic meal everyone gets okay let me do
2:23
the number one two piece of the chicken
2:24
and two waffles yeah Adam and you have
2:28
dr. pepper mr. Pibb okay I'll take just
2:33
a coke or regular coke yeah okay
2:36
excellent
2:36
thank you these are all though
2:47
went ahead and order this that's going
2:47
to take about 20 minutes to prepare now
2:50
this normally is full of chairs this
2:52
courtyard I have waited in multiple
2:54
times I've been here in the past at more
2:57
than just the Anaheim location but also
2:58
the Hollywood location this is not the
3:01
first but it is one of the less that I
3:04
believe 10 don't quote me on this but
3:06
less than 10 spots
3:22
a rare sight to not see a rather large
3:22
congregation
3:24
of not only folks but automobiles
3:33
usually no parking it off now there's
3:33
plenty heywhere cones up on the balcony
3:39
up there you see the chairs well it's
3:41
the upper level but normally there are
3:43
you know tables the chairs have been
3:45
kind of stacked up but soon things are
3:50
progressing soon we back up they're
3:51
eating again I've never eaten up there
3:54
I've always eaten on the ground level
3:56
inside something to look forward to and
4:00
as with so many other places they have
4:03
the the markers there
4:24
and hardly wait can't hardly wait I can
4:24
hardly wait or I can't hardly wait
4:49
found a little bit of shade under this
4:49
palm next to the great for this
5:00
I don't think they were better wait
5:00
patiently
5:06
you always have to wait patiently here
5:06
even when it's not specifically for
5:08
takeout or delivery even when it is
5:10
fully operational you have to wait and
5:14
it's worth it don't worry it is totally
5:15
totally worth it
5:26
the security guard over there is talking
5:26
about how they're gonna move the chairs
5:29
down soon it's exciting it's good to see
5:33
everything and I'm moving forward a few
5:37
key landmarks are in this general
5:39
neighborhood the Anaheim Convention
5:40
Center is right next door and there's a
5:43
couple blocks away is the front harbor
5:45
entrance Harbor Boulevard entrance of
5:47
Disneyland at the I'm gonna have to find
5:49
a place to perch to eat to eat that's
5:53
this shouldn't be a problem
5:53
- who's that oh he was just here so this
6:05
Thursday this is all gonna be open to
6:08
sit outside
6:16
it's talking to the security guard out
6:16
front they're very hopeful about the
6:19
future uh zip down just a bit
6:22
can I go over to the convention center
6:24
can we get a multitask with this the
6:28
beverage and the camera you guys I just
6:33
wanted to get that perspective of where
6:35
I'm gonna died it's now that I'm
6:38
realizing I should have brought the
6:41
GoPro because I'm holding the camera
6:43
with one hand and then I have basically
6:48
just doing this to keep control still
6:55
tough to get used to seeing this not
6:57
full of food trucks well I'm losing this
7:00
this is difficult
7:11
we can take this off now produções
7:11
taking it off a few minutes ago as I law
7:13
has a departed rhaskos this will be
7:17
bustling once again oh yes it will so
7:23
many of this I've attended here and will
7:25
continue to attend d23 VidCon WonderCon
7:43
lots of cons and one way there is a lot
7:43
of different types of ambiance
7:51
when you see places that are normally
7:51
packed not so packed
7:56
say for a few other
8:10
not gonna forget all this when this is
8:10
bustling once again sooner rather than
8:14
later
8:15
most likely
8:21
I will remember back to eating my
8:21
chicken dinner with waffle meal from
8:24
Roscoe's right here without a soul in
8:28
close proximity
8:31
nice little shade here it's not fully
8:34
shaded but shaded enough and this is
8:38
what we're dealing with
8:52
who would have imagined that waffles
8:52
would be such a nice addition to a
8:55
chicken dinner
8:57
now I must be clear I have never gotten
9:02
this particular order in fact every time
9:06
I've gone I get chicken and I get a side
9:09
of their delicious mac and cheese but I
9:12
have failed to do so I forgot but there
9:14
is waffles
9:16
butter no jelly and jam but plenty of
9:22
syrup look at that that's what I'm
9:25
talking about
9:27
start off with this diving right in
9:56
the outer shell is very crunchy very
9:56
tasty
9:57
not too much spice in fact very little
10:00
spice but that is good I have missed
10:04
and miss Roscoe's chicken
10:17
there's that right shifted my position
10:17
just a bit from over there to a more
10:23
shaded area here at North Palm Court of
10:28
the plaza the only reason I know this
10:32
what does a designated as is because of
10:36
these banners right up top North Palm
10:42
Court when I brought my mom and dad last
10:44
time they visited when I was still
10:46
living up in Hollywood we drove down
10:47
here to Anaheim and I took them to
10:51
Roscoe's for a meal my mom
10:55
commented wow this is very pricey for
10:58
fried chicken but after she ate the
11:02
chicken
11:02
she said that was pretty good worth the
11:05
price
11:12
there are less expensive chicken places
11:12
that's for sure it was hard to hold a
11:15
candle to Roscoe's opening up the butter
11:20
packet and just gonna kind of drip it
11:25
drip it on their maple syrup goodness
11:29
kind of pouring that on can almost fold
11:31
it over like let's so since this is
11:34
technically the breakfast item should
11:36
that be eaten up I mean I've already
11:37
I've already messed up if so because I
11:40
eat a leg but yeah but I eat this first
11:43
or second what's this is all new to me
11:47
I've never gotten this order before and
11:49
utilizing the knife would make more
11:52
sense to but just let's just go this way
12:17
mmm that is good I haven't had a waffle
12:17
in years that pancakes but I have not
12:21
had a waffle which is probably why
12:23
you're thinking that's not how you eat a
12:26
waffle hmm yeah
12:31
while I'm still finishing the last
12:34
morsel of a waffle and my mouth gonna go
12:37
in with the chicken now what's the
12:42
clumpy piece okay that's a little better
12:46
mmm
12:59
it's a nice mixture of flavors I get it
12:59
now just to be proper I'll use the use
13:05
the knife to cut it and do it the
13:08
correct way even though I'm pretty much
13:11
gonna chow down on the same sized piece
13:15
this
13:35
I didn't put butter on that fish there
13:35
is something to this genius absolutely
13:42
genius
13:49
click on paper doesn't really make sense
13:49
to try it then you're like okay makes
13:53
sense it's good to see that this whole
13:57
area is accessible to anyone who just
14:01
want to hang out here
14:48
as nice as this is solitude is a
14:48
wonderful thing
14:49
peaceful I miss conventions I missed
14:52
theme parks I'm this crowds I miss
14:56
giving hugs shaking hands saying hello
15:07
