Chicken & waffles — 05/11/23

cover of the Hippo depicting a waffle topped with fried chicken and syrup and words above

Two great tastes that not only taste great together but lend themselves to all sorts of tasty variations, so finds Matt Ingersoll during his examination of this sweet and salty anytime dish. Photo above and on the cover by Ethos & Able Creative of chicken and waffles at Cafe la Reine — North End in Manchester.

Also on the cover Hark, the New Hampshire Renaissance Faire doth return (see the story on page 17). The Currier Museum of Art presents a new exhibit from a Brazilian artist (page 14). Rainbow Full of Sound plays The Stone Church this Saturday, May 13 (page 34) — one of many musical options this weekend. Find our Music This Week listing starting on page 36 and other concerts on page 38.
