I'm partial to a jaffle myself.

I can't see a menu on the website. I wonder how gourmet they go. I'm happy with cheese & tomato perhaps some baked beans thrown in. Occasionally some left over bolognese if I'm feeling adventurous.

    I heard him talking about this last year I think on SEN. He mentioned a few different types that they were starting off with. From memory the ingredients sounded pretty standard and i don't think he mentioned more than about 4 or 5 different types of jaffles.

    Nothing like taking the roof of your mouth off with volcanic hot baked beans in a jaffle in the middle of winter.

    He might be onto a winner here.

    Baked beans, chilli con carne-style, with chopped habanero chillies, shaved Parmesan, avocado cubes and lime juice with thick wholemeal/grain bread, hand-sliced from the loaf! Hotter than hell. A couple of cans of Carlton never tasted so good.

    I had a Jaffle from Maxys  van today at the Commercial hotel beer garden in Yarraville.

    Max wasn’t there, but it’s being run in partnership with his younger brother.

    i had a pastrami cheese and pickle one, and it tasted good. Basically a toasted sandwich. Took over half an hour to make though , so thought it was a very long wait, but I guess teething problems are to be expected in a brand new venture.

    I reckon you’ll find Max is more figurehead than hands on in this venture, but making the odd “celebrity” appearance. It appears to be a Gawn Brothers venture underwritten by Max.

    So DZ how much did they charge? Good value for money?

    What else was on the menu?

    They charged about 8 bucks and other flavors they had were ham off the bone, baked beans, kewpie and sweet with apple and cinnamon.

    So the service is great, expect that they keep giving first bite to the midfielders.

    Boom-tish.

    Anything hotter?  I reckon the jam from a microwaved donut would go close SWYL!

    Worked in an office with a bloke who would guts 80% of any morning tea provided.  Left a plate of microwaved jam donuts out on the kitchen table.  Taught the bustard a valuable albeit, painful lesson.

    On the topic of jaffles, I love 'em with just about anything but particularly cooked over an open camp fire.

    We had a cleaner, a big French guy, he would come in and eat all the cream biscuits in the tea room. One day I left one cream biscuit on the table, cream removed and filled with wasabi. He swallowed it whole and soon turned green, he never stole another biscuit.

    Edit- In the 60's the Herbert Adams pies served at the footy were like molten lava inside and if it dripped between your fingers it would burn like hell.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
