Do it yourself wafflemaker!

Totally awesome. pRe measured cups of batter, timer starts when you turn it over. Yummy!

Yep. I consider this one of the pleasures of business travel.

I'm always the one whose waffles get stuck to the iron and have to be picked off one grain of flour at a time.

Oddly, these were 'pour in, then flip over, that starts the timer' - so when you opened them, it was stuck to the top. A little sort of claw bit (you can see one in the picture) was perfect for popping the waffle out of the grill.

Zach made two, and I made one, and I saw handful of other patrons coming through, some obviously kitchen inept, and didn't see one waffle perish.

Maybe it's the model?

Been to a couple of hotels with these - very cute (although one place had batter that was WAY too sweet for my palate).

I've never seen these in the hotels I've stayed at. These were remarkably idiot-proof. Maybe we'll get some for the common house :)

Hey, I resemble that remark.

Other accomodations excluded, natch. You were certainly the most courteous hotel staff I've ever worked with. *nod*

Homewood Suites?

No, oddly enough it was Comfort Inn. Not a place I usually attribute to high end accomodations, but everything about it was top notch. I was really happy with it.
