My fiancée and I don’t usually eat breakfast out, but The Waffle Taco — which opened in late 2020 in a former Waffle House location near I-24 on Bell Road — is changing our minds. The food is delicious, freshly prepared, generously portioned and reasonably priced. Just as important is the fact that the management and staff, many of whom are Latinos, embrace and reflect the rainbow array of cultures that make up Antioch. Too often, fun and charming breakfast spots represent gentrification in one way or another. The Waffle Taco is a fine example of how they can be a form of cross-cultural community engagement instead.
