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.

When your main competition is Warwick Capper, it won't be hard to come across as intelligent, professional or likeable.

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

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?

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.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
