Imagine my surprise when I am away for a nice night away with my wife at a Kohler’s 5 start resort on the Lake Michigan coast of WI, when I see the menu and there they are, staring me in the face. Blackwolf Run’s $22 chicago and waffles are no ordinary chicken and waffles. These were 2 medium-sized sweet potato and maple waffles together with perfectly friend buttermilk dark meat chicken served with greens and pickled onions with a chipotle honey butter. Normally, I consider myself a chicken and waffle purist, but this was just marvelous. The Waffles were tender yet crispy on the outside, the sweet potato was present but not overpowering and greens on the side provided a nice balance. Even though Blackwolf Run Restaurant has been honored with the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence since 2002, I opted for a Belhaven Jigger Ale, the Scottish Ale brewed in St. Andrews and only available at Kohler properties.
I highly recommend not only a visit to Kohler’s American Club, but sampling their chicken and waffles!
