Here, apple crisp (or apple crumble as we call it) is only eaten as dessert. Same as pancakes and waffles!! :-) Waffles aren't that popular though, I don't know anyone who owns a waffle iron here, but you can buy them in the city centre from a stall outside - hot Belgian Waffles in the snow - yum! :-) |
