Waffles and Toppings? Oh My! Waffle Frolic Joins the Commons

Ever dreamed of a restaurant that only serves waffles? For those waffle connoisseurs and the regular crowd of waffle enthusiasts, this dream has come true. Waffle Frolic joined the Commons on April 17th. This food option caters to anyone who not only likes waffles, but likes a whole lot of stuff on them. “The toppings are endless,” says Abigail Young, college student. They have a waffle ice cream sandwich I’ve been meaning to get next time I go there.” This waffle eatery is run by two recent Ithaca College graduates, Julia  Pergolini and Alexis Randall. In an interview, these two women said they thought of Waffle Frolic to give the Ithaca community something different and a creative late night snack option. Originally “That Burrito Place,” this new cozy caffe’ consists of a second floor where customers can lounge in couches and savor the goodness of their waffles. Both owners agree a place like Waffle Frolic existed while they were students. This dessert destination is open until 2 AM on the weekends preventing the public from going hungry. Laura Sacchi, college student, says, “Waffle Frolic is great because so many restaurants in Ithaca aren’t open that late especially on the weekends.” A single waffle is $3.50 and the toppings are endless, but not included with waffle. Sold separately, bananas, whipped cream, and chocolate and many others compliment the waffles more than you’d think. As in my previous post, the unique eateries in ithaca are truly tremendous.
