Having had Petite Abeille’s Belgian waffles in mind, I thought it would marvelous to go for bunch. My waffles with strawberry sauce was far from marvelous; the presentation was nice-looking but the technique was basic and straightforward. Not inspiring or captivating for the palate. If it wasn’t for the rainbow color of fruits bedded on top of the waffle I don’t think the waffle would survive on its own. The waffle itself can be made from the box at home by a teenage. The texture was stale-like and missing a moist component; the taste was bland and minimal. The dish scores points in presentation—it will wow your kids. But if you’re looking for a daring, bold and new taste you will not find it here.
Everything made sense when I realized that Petite Abeille was a chain. For the serious eater who frequents Prune in LES, Petite Abeille would not come close to be on the to-eat-list. It’s a fun and appropriate outlet for children and their parents to eat and be uninspired.
