Liege waffle · Cincinnati

Liege waffle is a Belgian street-food specialty popularized in Cincinnati by Taste of Belgium: dense, caramelized waffle with pearl sugar fused into the dough, sold from a counter window.

Jean-Francois Flechet, a Belgian native, opened the first Taste of Belgium stall at Findlay Market in 2007, importing Belgian pearl-sugar Liege waffles to Cincinnati. The dough is yeast-leavened (not batter) and the pearl sugar caramelizes on the iron, giving the signature crunch-and-tender texture. Cincinnati now has multiple Taste of Belgium locations, the OTR flagship the largest.
