The Sleepy Rooster Cafe Cobalt
I have to say that when I saw the sign that a new restaurant was opening in Cobalt I was intrigued. We finally stopped in a couple of weeks ago and I have to say, I was blown away. I had no idea what to expect but nothing could have prepared me for what we got!! Sleepy Rooster indeed!!
What they specialize in waffleswiches. I love chicken and waffles but this is a different twist altogether. Try to picture a chicken and waffle sandwich. Is it easy to eat? No, it is awkward but it is so delicious that you will say who cares.
For Al I had his served on a hard roll, I didn't think he would be able to handle the waffle. I am hard pressed to tell you which is better, the chicken or the waffle. Both of them are amazing and imagine that a fried egg and cheddar cheese are added. It was over the top decadence.
The inside is tiny but we had room to sit at a table along the wall with tall chairs. I had a coffee and Al got orange juice.
This is a very friendly place and besides the wafflewiches, there are a whole lot of other ways you can go, I was a little stunned when I first saw the menu, I just was unprepared.
Go to their website and check out the menu before you go and this way you can make an informed choice. Not that I regretted mine at all, it was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten!!
Oh, wait did I forget to mention their special sauce!! Oh my word, it really is special in all the best ways, yum, yum and yum.
If you want to give your taste buds a real treat, stop by and give The Sleepy Rooster Cafe a try, you will be glad that you did.

Restaurant review: Tap House 150 Cromwell, CT
If you don't know where Tap House 150 is, you might never find it. It is off of route 372 near I-91. It is on Sebeth Drive. In spite of that, it was literally mobbed when we arrived there at 5 p.m. on a Sunday.
You can dine at the bar, there are also several places inside the building and out to eat. We ended up right next to the bar on a hightop table. It was very noisy, everyone was having a good time and that makes a certain amount of din. We think next time if we want to talk, we will dine outside.
The menu is really interesting. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect but there are lots of pizza, lots of tacos, sandwiches, appetizers and entres.
I started with a seltzer with lime and opted for 2 tacos, fish and shrimp and an order of their hand-cut French fries. Irene had a chicken pesto sandwich with mushrooms.
My tacos came served on a board with the French fries in a cone in between them. If I have any complaint it was that they were overstuffed, it made it very messy to eat but the fillings were delicious. The shrimp had a cucumber salsa and avocado crema and the fish taco had pineapple. The French fries were perfect, I loved them.
Irene enjoyed her sandwich and it came served with chips.
I ordered meatball sliders to take home for Al and he enjoyed them.
I feel like this could become one of my favorite restaurants. The menu has enough choices to keep me entertained and well-fed for quite some time.
And best of all, they are open on Sunday when it seems so many restaurants are closed. I think you should visit Tap House 150 and give them a try.
