The new classic — chicken and waffles — comes with a serious makeover at Barley. Instead of run-of-the-mill waffles, they are bread pudding waffles. And instead of regular maple syrup, it’s red wine maple syrup. The waffles are then topped with cranberries and crushed pistachios giving it a twist that is anything but boring.
