This hotel waffle story from Nate Bargatze will have you laughing out loud. The popular and talented funnyman has a skill in making anything, even the smallest, most insignificant encounter and experience, deliriously funny, and he has done that once again with what he witnessed during a continental breakfast. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear what happened when he and a buddy tried to enjoy breakfast at a hotel.
Hotels are an excellent modern convenience that too many of us take for granted. They make travel and vacations possible, or at least much easier, allowing people to easily book a place to stay for a night or two while going from Point A to Point B. What would we do if hotels didn't exist? Probably open the Airbnb app and figure out something there, but that’s beside the point.
Most people have stayed in a hotel at some point. Some of them were great, and others likely not so much. However, despite the condition of the room or whether anything was missing or damaged, can we all admit that the continental breakfast is the best thing about staying at a hotel? Who doesn’t want to wake up and rush downstairs for a cinnamon roll or a nice bowl of Lucky Charms?
In a clip posted on YouTube, Nate explained that he and a buddy were trying to enjoy their hotel’s breakfast layout when things went horribly and hilariously wrong. What should have just been a nice breakfast turned into a catastrophe.
“So, I’m with my buddy of mine, that’s my age,” he said. “So, we go through; he’s in front of me. Not really talking or anything, just going through. He gets to it. It’s batter and syrup – they’re in clear containers. They’re not labeled, but they’re in clear containers. He gets the syrup and starts pouring it on the waffle iron.”
This seemed like an odd move, but Nate was interested to see where his friend was going with this culinary decision, so he just hung back and watched for a moment.
“And I’m not even stopping him because he’s not doing it where he’s going, ‘I don’t, I’ve never done that,’” he added. “He’s doing it where we’re probably going to try it after. He’s doing it like. I’m like, dude, I can’t wait to see what this guy is making. Like, he might know something that I don’t know.”
Moments later, he discovered how his friend’s creation turned out.
“And it makes black smoke, is what it makes,” he said.
Not all recipes will be winners.
