"Brussels waffles," made on special waffle irons with large, deep grids and topped with strawberries and whipped cream, debuted at that city's World's Fair in 1960 and were introduced as Belgian waffles at the 1964 World's Fair in New York City. In Belgium the waffles are not relegated to the breakfast table but are considered an afternoon snack. To our mind, however, those deep crevices are ideal receptacles for butter and maple syrup.
